Veikkausliiga returns on Monday with the 'derby' between JJK and KuPS - both managed to qualify for the upcoming Europa League but going through very different seasons. JJK are currently 5th, while last season's losing cup finalists KuPS are struggling, one place off the bottom. Without resorting to cliches, the form book may well go out of the window. But another defeat for the team from Kuopio and the rest of the pack will pull further away. The teams had already drawn the first meeting 2-2, with JJK scoring two late goals to grab a point.

While the eyes of the world are on the European Championship, it's back to the grind for the Finns. With the draw for the first qualifying round of the Europa League just two weeks away, the two teams need to make sure their focus is on the now, and not a potential glamour tie with the likes of APOEL or Anzhi.
