Hi after the break.
The Finnish side HJK are in stunning form after winning in all of their previous 8 games at home scoring twice or more on all occasions and conceding just 4 goals in total. HJK have a much more modest European experience in the last decade. They did regain the title in Veikkausliiga after three years in the previous term. BATE have been much more successful at this level in the past couple of years. They were unlucky to suffer an early elimination to Slavia Prague on the away goal rule (2-2 on aggregate) last year. Nevertheless, BATE went on to play the Europa League group phase where they could not advance into the knockout round past the likes of Arsenal, Red Star Belgrade and Koln.
