Tokyo Verdy, Recent FormTokyo Verdy will not be too disheartened with their 2-1 away defeat at the hands of Cerezo Osaka who sit 11 places above them in the table. In that game they had 38% possession and managed 9 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Cerezo Osaka who had 13 attempts and 3 on target.
Hiroshi Jofuku will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 7 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 6 goals and, as a result, lost some important points.
They have had a strong run of form at Ajinomoto Stadium recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 home games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Albirex Niigata, Recent FormAlbirex Niigata enter this game with a comfortable 1-0 home win over Nagoya Grampus last time out in the league. Their share of possession in that meeting was 61%, while racking up 17 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target. Nagoya Grampus had 10 shots on goal with 3 on target.
They have a modest amount of points to show from their last 6 games, in spite of only conceding 2 goals, because they have failed to be as predictable in their scoring at the other end despite a reasonable 4 goals. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, and they've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 games overall.
They've shown some decent form of late, being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 matches, with 3 of the 5 being victories for good measure.
The Albirex Niigata travelling support have had something to shout about on the road via the goals from Kaito Taniguchi, who's scored 3 goals in their last 6 league matches away from home.
In the last league encounter between these sides, it was Albirex Niigata who ended up empty-handed, losing 1-0 to Tokyo Verdy.
The Albirex defence has struggled at Ajinomoto Stadium , having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 8 visits. When it comes to breaching the opposition defence, Albirex know how to do it against Tokyo Verdy, having clocked up 16 goals against them in their previous 5 meetings.
Albirex man Yoshiaki Takagi will be confident about extending his scoring record against Tokyo Verdy, having hit the netting 4 times in the last 5 times they have met in the league.
With no real injury worries, Tokyo Verdy manager Hiroshi Jofuku will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
