Ykkösliiga table: how to read points and goal difference
The gap from top to bottom is 27 points. KTP lead on 36 with a difference of +11; SJK Akatemia sit last on 9. PK-35 are second, 2 points behind.
KTP score most with 30 goals. PK-35 defend best, conceding 9, while EIF have shipped 30 — the spread between those two says how uneven the league is at the back.
A club takes 1.38 points per match on average and scores 20.4 goals across the season. The median is 25 points (JäPS), with 4 clubs above it. The median describes a league better than the mean does: one runaway side pulls the mean up and barely moves the median.
The drop zone is 9 points from safety: MP sit 7th on 18, against SJK Akatemia on 9. Those are the numbers that decide the closing weeks.
Ykkösliiga home and away: split points
The Ykkösliiga table recomputes separately for home fixtures and for away ones. They are the same matches split by venue, so points in the two tables always sum back to the overall one.
EIF take the most at home, 12 points from 7 matches, while PK-35 lead away on 10 — more often different clubs than you would expect.
EIF depend on their ground most: 12 points at home against 0 away, a gap of 12. JIPPO show the smallest split at -4. Across the league a club takes 1.8 more points at home than away.
Ykkösliiga: goals, averages and difference
Across 38 matches the league has produced 204 goals, 2.21 per game. Home sides win 50% of the time, both teams score in 29%, and 39% finish over 2.5.
MP carry the flattest goal difference at -5 — clubs on those numbers usually sit mid-table, equally far from the title and the drop.

Ykkösliiga: division size and what it changes
The size of a division changes how its figures read. With 10 clubs each plays 17 matches, and a run of three or four results moves a position further than it would in a league twice the size: the sample is smaller, so chance weighs more.
For the same reason the points gap between neighbouring places tends to be narrower here and the middle of the table reorders more often. Goal difference is especially useful in a division this size, because it accumulates across every match and depends less on who a club happened to face recently.
Comparing this division with others on absolute numbers — goals scored, points taken — means little where the number of rounds differs. What compares is the relative measures: points per match, scoring rate, the share of draws.

Common questions
How are points awarded in the Ykkösliiga table?
Three points for a win, one for a draw, none for a defeat. A side with more wins can still sit below one that draws often, but only where the number of matches played differs.
What separates clubs level on points?
Goal difference first, then goals scored. KTP currently lead Ykkösliiga on 36 points with a difference of +11.
How does the home table differ from the overall one?
The home table counts only matches played at home and the away table only those on the road. They are the same fixtures, so the two sets of points add back to the overall table. A mid-table club is often in the top three of one of them.
How many goals does a match produce on average?
2.21 per game across 38 matches. Both teams score in 29% of them and 39% finish over 2.5 goals.
Where are previous seasons?
In the country archive: Finland, final tables year by year, split by division and, where they existed, by territorial zone.
How can two clubs be compared?
Through the head-to-head panel: pick two sides and it returns the score of their meetings this season, read from the same results grid the home and away tables are computed from.
