Our prediction is: SJK to win

In all honesty, there is no other result we can foresee for this match other than SJK to win outright, which is our betting tip.

SJK's strong form this season, particularly at home, is hard to overlook, as are KuPS's shaky overall results and performances of late. And we expect the two sides to play true to form when they meet for their upcoming match.

Our prediction is: over 9.5 corners

For those in need of a nice change in betting markets, let's take a good look at over/under corners. Based on our research on SJK vs KuPS, we expect to see both teams spend significant time deep in opposition territory given their willingness to go forward.

That is why we highly recommend taking the over 9.5 corners line at odds of 1.55 for this upcoming match.
