This one's rather odd, but a similarity nonetheless.

The Last Jedi's teaser trailer features only one look at John Boyega as Finn, with the character dressed in a white, plastic suit, that seems to be covering everything but his head - which is exactly the same as his single appearance in The Force Awakens' teaser trailer.

It's a very weird, specific coincidence - both trailers just happen to feature only one look at the character, and in both, he's sporting a hard white onesie?

The Last Jedi's trailer shows Finn in some sort of healing tank, recuperating after sustaining a serious injury at the end of the last film.

And, though both these shots and costumes are reminiscient of each other, we're sure Finn would rather be lying in a warm, comfortable, glass enclosure than running for his life through the scorching heat of Jakku.
