Yokohama FC, Recent FormYokohama FC will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 1-0 away win against Kashiwa Reysol. Their share of possession in that meeting was 43%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Kashiwa Reysol, who had 28 shots on goal with 6 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 4 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 11 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 11 of their 13 games overall.
They've had a terrible run of form at NHK Spring Mitsuzawa Stadium recently and having lost 4 of their last 6 home games managing just 1 win.
Kawasaki Frontale, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Kawasaki Frontale players having failed to take any points away from their recent 2-1 away defeat at the hands of FC Tokyo. They came away from that fixture with a 65% share of the possession and clocked up 9 attempts on goal with 5 on target, in comparison to FC Tokyo, who managed 10 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 8 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 6 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
It's been mixed fortunes for Kawasaki away from home recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games on the road.
Taisei Miyashiro has scored 3 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Yokohama FC.
The 0-2 victory which Kawasaki Frontale recorded last time these two sides met was no surprise to most.
Azzurro Nero will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against Yokohama having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 18 meetings. Playing away from home, Kawasaki have kept a clean sheet in 2 of their last 3 league games against Yokohama. In their recent meetings Kawasaki have had no problem breaking down Yokohama's defence, having found the back of the net 14 times in their last 5 games. The Kawasaki defence tends to hold pretty firm when they visit Yokohama in the league, with Kawasaki conceding just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
Undefeated in their last 9 league encounters against Yokohama at NHK Spring Mitsuzawa Stadium, Kawasaki have dominated this fixture in recent times, winning on their last 9 visits in a row.
With no real injury worries, Yokohama manager Shuhei Yomoda will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Kawasaki manager Tōru Oniki has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
