Urawa Red Diamonds, Recent FormIt was just a point apiece for Urawa Red Diamonds and Kashima Antlers in their last match, which ended in a 0-0 draw. In that game they had 53% possession and managed 12 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Kashima Antlers who had 7 attempts and 1 on target.
They have taken just a small number of points from their past 6 matches, and while they have only let in 3 goals, it has been their unpredictable form in front of goal that has been their issue, with 7 goals netted in those 6 matches. They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games; however, they've kept a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have been performing well at Saitama Stadium 2002 recently and are unbeaten in their last 11 home games.
Goalscorer José Kanté will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Urawa Red Diamonds.
Vissel Kobe, Recent FormVissel Kobe manager Takayuki Yoshida will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Shonan Bellmare. They achieved 59% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Shonan Bellmare's tally of 11 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
Yoshida will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. This season they have scored in 13 of their 15 away games and kept 13 clean sheets in 31 games overall.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Yuya Osako will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Urawa Red Diamonds in this match, having already scored 4 goals in his last 6 away games for Vissel Kobe.
When these two teams last met in the league it was a 0-1 win for Urawa Red Diamonds.

Vissel have lost the last 2 times they've faced Urawa Reds in the league and have failed to win in their last 3 encounters.
