Kashima Antlers, Recent FormThe Kashima Antlers squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 away defeat against Machida Zelvia, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. They came away from that fixture with 65% of the possession and clocked up 10 attempts on goal with 0 on target. By comparison, Machida Zelvia managed 12 attempts on goal, with 4 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 7 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Kashima will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 home games, but having managed just 2 wins leaves them plenty of room for improvement.
Kawasaki Frontale, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 1-0 home defeat by Kyoto Sanga will have left the Kawasaki Frontale squad feeling a little deflated. They achieved 65% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Kyoto Sanga's tally of 8 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 13 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 10 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
They have been performing well away from home and are unbeaten in their last 4 away games.
Goalscorer Yasuto Wakizaka will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Kawasaki Frontale.
After a good 3-0 win for Kawasaki Frontale in this pair's last league encounter, Kashima Antlers will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
Azzurro Nero will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Kashima, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 10 meetings between the two.

Kawasaki will be looking to continue their winning streak against Kashima, having won each of the last 6 times they have met in the league and being unbeaten in their last 16 meetings.
Kawasaki player Yasuto Wakizaka will be looking to get on the scoresheet again against Kashima, having scored 3 goals in the last 5 league meetings between the teams.
