Avispa Fukuoka, Recent FormThe Avispa Fukuoka squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-1 away defeat against Urawa Red Diamonds, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. Their share of possession in that meeting was 28%, while racking up 4 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Urawa Red Diamonds, who had 17 shots on goal with 7 on target.
Manager Shigetoshi Hasebe will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 4 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 7 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. Of their last 6 games played at home, they've have been unable to score in 4 games and only kept 2 clean sheets.
A home win for Avispa Fukuoka is just a distant memory, having not won at Best Denki Stadium in 6 games.
On an individual basis, Ryoga Sato will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Avispa Fukuoka's last 6 league games.
Kashima Antlers, Recent FormKashima Antlers have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 1-0 home win against Jubilo Iwata in their previous league match. They came away from that fixture with a 53% share of the possession and clocked up 14 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Jubilo Iwata, who managed 15 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
Manager Ranko Popović will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Goalscorer Yuma Suzuki will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Kashima Antlers.
The previous match between these two ended without a goal and a share of the spoils, so it wasn't one to remember on that occasion.
It's been a long time since Avispa have managed to find the back of the net against Kashima, having failed to score against them in their last 4 league encounters. The Kashima defence tends to hold pretty firm when they visit Avispa in the league, with Kashima conceding just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
The last 2 league meetings between these teams have ended in a draw, but Kashima may still feel they have the upper hand, given they have not lost any of their last 4 league encounters with Avispa.
