Pelicans vs Tappara Prediction 15 September 2026

Pelicans have started the season with three consecutive Liiga victories. They defeated KalPa (2:0), Kiekko-Espoo (1:2) and Vaasan Sport (6:3). Their recent results show a productive attack, with 10 goals scored across their last three league matches.

Tappara have also been involved in high-scoring games recently. They lost to Rogle (0:4) and defeated Vaxjo (2:1) in the Champions Hockey League, while their previous games against Kolner Haie (4:5) and Liberec (3:6) also produced plenty of goals. They then lost to SaiPa (2:4) in the Liiga.

Both teams have shown a tendency to be involved in games with several goals. Pelicans have scored consistently in their recent Liiga matches, while Tappara's last four games have produced at least five goals each. This points towards an open matchup with opportunities at both ends of the ice.

The over 4.5 goals line looks attractive at 1.72. Pelicans have already scored six or more goals in two of their last three matches, while Tappara's recent results have also featured a high scoring rate. Even five total goals would be enough to land the selection.
