Recently, the team has managed to show a more organized defense away from home. Information about the previously played matches:
The last time the club Илвес played a home match against the team СИК. Excellent attack and great defense led to a decisive victory in this encounter.. Before this the team Илвес played an away match against the club ВПС. Good defensive play and several accurate shots decided the outcome of the match, not in favor of ВПС.
