Albirex Niigata, Recent FormAlbirex Niigata 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 60% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 0 on target, compared to Vissel Kobe who had 11 attempts and 4 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 7, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 8 goals and some valuable points in the process. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late.
They have had a strong run of form at Denka Big Swan Stadium recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 home games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Goalscorer Shusuke Ota will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 4 goals in his last 6 league matches for Albirex Niigata.
Avispa Fukuoka, Recent FormAvispa Fukuoka will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-1 home win against Kyoto Sanga. In that game they recorded 51 % of the possession, with 12 attempts on goal, 4 on target. Their opponents found the target on 3 of their 8 shots on goal.
Manager Shigetoshi Hasebe will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 8 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. Having found the net in 5 of their last 6 matches, they will be pleased that their forward line have found some good and consistent form of late. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
They've drawn their last 2 league games away from home, but their search for a league win on the road extends even further having gone 4 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
Wellington Tanque will be hoping to create problems for Albirex Niigata in this one, having scored 3 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Avispa Fukuoka.
