Salon Vilpas' coach Mikko Tupamaki tested ten players, but that didn't help to avoid defeat in this game. Joensuun Kataja have a solid series of three victories in a row. Joensuun Kataja maintains first place with 19-4 record. Salon Vilpas at the other side dropped to the eighth position with 14 games lost. Joensuun Kataja will meet at home KTP-Basket (#9) in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Salon Vilpas will play against LrNMKY in Lappeenranta and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
