Kyoto Sanga, Recent FormIn their last match Kyoto Sanga enforced their superiority over Yokohama FC with a 4-1 away win. In that game they had 40% possession and managed 14 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Yokohama FC who had 11 attempts and 3 on target.
It's fair to say that manager Kwi-jae Cho 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 4 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. His back line has certainly underperformed, only making 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home matches.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 home games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Vissel Kobe, Recent FormLast time out, Vissel Kobe left content aftera 1-0 away win against Sagan Tosu Their share of possession in that meeting was 40%, while racking up 15 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Sagan Tosu had 2 shots on goal with 0 on target.
Manager Takayuki Yoshida will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 10 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. When it comes to attacking performances, they can consider themselves in a good and consistent form, having chalked up goals in 5 of their last 6 matches. Away from home, they have become reasonably solid at the back with 3 clean sheets in their last 6 away outings.
They have had a good run of form away from home recently, having won 4 out of their last 6 games on the road.
On an individual basis, Koya Yuruki will be looking to cause Kyoto Sanga some problems having scored 2 goals in Vissel Kobe's last 6 away games in the league.
In the last league encounter between these sides, it was Vissel Kobe who ended up empty-handed, losing 2-0 to Kyoto Sanga.
Away from home, Ushi have shipped at least one goal to Kyoto Sanga in each of their previous 5 league matches against them. In their past 5 meetings, Kyoto Sanga's defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so Vissel will have to take their chances when they come. In their last 3 away league games against Kyoto Sanga, Vissel have conceded a total of 9 goals and that's an average of 3 per game.
Kyoto Sanga has had a good run of league results at home to Vissel, winning their last 5 meetings and being unbeaten in their last 5.
With no real injury worries, Kyoto Sanga manager Kwi-jae Cho will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Vissel manager Takayuki Yoshida has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
