Tokyo Verdy, Recent FormTokyo Verdy will be reasonably happy to come away from their match against Albirex Niigata with a 2-2 draw and a valuable point. In that game they had 38% possession and managed 10 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Albirex Niigata who had 11 attempts and 3 on target.
It's fair to say that manager Hiroshi Jofuku will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 7 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.
Having managed to remain undefeated in 5 of their last 6 home matches at Ajinomoto Stadium , they have put together a strong home record of late, winning 3 of these games too.
Kyoto Sanga, Recent FormThe Kyoto Sanga squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 3-2 home defeat against Yokohama F. Marinos, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. They achieved 41% possession in that match and had 19 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Yokohama F. Marinos' tally of 19 efforts at goal, 8 of which were on target.
When it comes to attacking power Kwi-jae Cho will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 9 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 7 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. In their last 6 away games, they have scored in 5 and kept a clean sheet in 3.
Kyoto Sanga will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 away games, but with only 2 wins there is some room for improvement.
On an individual basis, Yuta Toyokawa will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Kyoto Sanga's last 6 league games.
It was no surpirise that the last time these two teams met Kyoto Sanga came out on top, winning the match 3-1.
In their previous 3 encounters with Kyoto Sanga, Tokyo Verdy have shipped at least one goal in those matches. Goals come easy for Kyoto Sanga when they travel to Tokyo Verdy, having recorded 6 goals in their past 3 visits and an impressive average of 2 goals per match.
