Kawasaki Frontale, Recent FormThe 3-2 away defeat to Sanfrecce Hiroshima will not have sat easily with the Kawasaki Frontale squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. They achieved 54% possession in that match and had 7 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Sanfrecce Hiroshima's tally of 14 efforts at goal, 11 of which were on target.
Tōru Oniki will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 11 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 10 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, and this season they have notched up 5 clean sheets in 11 games at Kawasaki Todoroki Stadium.
They have had a good run of form at Kawasaki Todoroki Stadium recently, having won 4 out of their last 6 home games.
Yasuto Wakizaka will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Kawasaki Frontale.
Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo, Recent FormBuilding up confidence within his squad will be a priority for Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo supremo Mihailo Petrović after sustaining a heavy 3-0 away loss to Kyoto Sanga. They came away from that fixture with a 65% share of the possession and clocked up 16 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Kyoto Sanga, who managed 14 attempts on goal, 5 of which were on target.
Having scored just 3 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to Petrović where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table. However, he will still have one eye on his defence which has shipped 11 in the same period. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 20 games overall.
A win for Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 8 games.
Tsuyoshi Ogashiwa has scored 4 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Kawasaki Frontale.
