Albirex Niigata, Recent FormA 1-1 draw and a point gained against Gamba Osaka in their previous meeting will have been considered a fairly decent result for Albirex Niigata last time out. They achieved 56% possession in that match and had 8 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Gamba Osaka's tally of 26 efforts at goal, 8 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager Rikizo Matsuhashi will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 5 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 7 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 1 clean sheet in those games.
They've drawn their last 2 league games at Denka Big Swan Stadium, but their search for a home win in the league extends even further having gone 3 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
Yokohama FC, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 2-1 home defeat by Kashiwa Reysol will have left the Yokohama FC squad feeling a little deflated. They came away from that fixture with a 59% share of the possession and clocked up 15 attempts on goal with 4 on target, in comparison to Kashiwa Reysol, who managed 11 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
When it comes to attacking power Shuhei Yomoda will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 8 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 7 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have conceded at least one goal in 11 of their 12 away games this season.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 6 games.
The last time these sides were pitched against each other in the league, it ended in a 1-0 win for Yokohama FC.
On each of the last 2 outings between Albirex and Yokohama in the league, Albirex have not performed well in front of goal and have come up empty-handed in terms of goals. Playing at home, Albirex have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Yokohama.
Yokohama has won the last 2 games they've played against Albirex in the league.
With no real injury worries, Albirex manager Rikizo Matsuhashi will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Yokohama manager Shuhei Yomoda has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
