Shonan Bellmare, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 4-2 home defeat by Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo will have left the Shonan Bellmare squad feeling a little deflated. They achieved 49% possession in that match and had 8 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo's tally of 13 efforts at goal, 6 of which were on target.
Despite scoring 8 goals in their last 6 matches, they have failed to pick up many points, mainly because their back line have shipped 13 goals in that same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 13 games.
Results wise, their recent poor run of form has left them without a win in 6 games.

They came away from that fixture with a 39% share of the possession and clocked up 8 attempts on goal with 2 on target, in comparison to Kyoto Sanga, who managed 13 attempts on goal, 2 of which were on target.
Manager Akio Kogiku will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 6 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 away games.
