Player Status
Vaasa VPS currently has no recent reports of major player injuries or suspensions, suggesting they will be able to field their strongest lineup. The team's attacking line needs to improve its efficiency to break through the opponent's defense.
IFK Mariehamn's injury situation is relatively minor, but center-back Patrik Raitanen is a long-term absentee due to a cruciate ligament tear, which is a significant loss for their defense. Additionally, T. Castagne and H. Reed have also had injury records but are expected to return in early August.
