The 1-0 home defeat to Avispa Fukuoka will not have sat easily with the Yokohama F. Marinos squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 72%, while racking up 22 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target, in contrast to Avispa Fukuoka, who had 10 shots on goal with 4 on target.  

While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 9 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 5, and leading to valuable points being dropped.   Of their last 6 games played at home, they've have been unable to score in 3 games and only kept 2 clean sheets.  

It's been a mixed run of form at Nissan Stadium for Yokohama FM recently, with 2 wins and 2 defeats in their last 6 home games.  

Anderson Lopes will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 4 goals in the last 6 league outings for Yokohama F. Marinos.

Gamba Osaka will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 1-0 win in their home outing against Albirex Niigata.  In that game they had 42% possession and managed 17 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Albirex Niigata who had 3 attempts and 1 on target.  

Having conceded 8 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 4 points.   They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.  

Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 7 games.
