Tomorrow (May 3), Åland United will host reigning champions HJK at WHA – a true top clash that promises high intensity and excitement already early in the season. Head coach Daniel Norrmén is well aware of the opponent’s strength but still looks ahead to the match with confidence:

“We’re looking forward to the challenge that the match against HJK will bring, and it will definitely be a fun game to play. HJK have shown during pre-season that they’re once again a very strong team and probably the natural favourites in this year’s league. But we proved in the Cup during pre-season that we can challenge them fully – and that’s exactly what we aim to do this time as well. Of course, we go into the match with the will to win, so now it’s all about delivering a strong performance that gives us the chance to do just that.”
