Urawa Red Diamonds, Recent FormThe Urawa Red Diamonds players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against FC Tokyo recently, that ended in a 2-1 defeat. Their share of possession in that meeting was 52%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target, in contrast to FC Tokyo, who had 17 shots on goal with 3 on target.
It's fair to say that manager Per-Mathias Høgmo will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 9 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 10 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at Saitama Stadium 2002.
It's been a mixed run of form for Urawa Reds recently with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 defeats in their last 6 games.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Urawa Red Diamonds, Alexander Scholz will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Sagan Tosu, Recent FormSagan Tosu will be reasonably happy to come away from their match against Vissel Kobe with a 0-0 draw and a valuable point. In that game they had 49% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Vissel Kobe who had 12 attempts and 2 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 6 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 11 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 10 games.
On an individual basis, Cayman Togashi is giving Sagan Tosu's travelling fans plenty to shout about having scored 3 goals in the squad's last 6 away games in the league.
