Kawasaki Frontale, Recent FormKawasaki Frontale will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 1-0 away win against Kyoto Sanga. Their share of possession in that meeting was 59%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target, in contrast to Kyoto Sanga, who had 11 shots on goal with 0 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 10 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 9 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at Kawasaki Todoroki Stadium.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 home games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Goalscorer Taisei Miyashiro 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.
Sagan Tosu, Recent FormWith Yokohama F. Marinos sitting a clear 14 places above them in the table, Sagan Tosu won't feel totally dejected with their 3-1 home defeat by them last time out. They came away from that fixture with a 50% share of the possession and clocked up 21 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Yokohama F. Marinos, who managed 12 attempts on goal, 4 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager Kenta Kawai will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 6 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 8 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
Fuchi Honda will be hoping to create problems for Kawasaki Frontale in this one, having scored 3 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Sagan Tosu.
