Sanfrecce Hiroshima, Recent FormSanfrecce Hiroshima manager Michael Skibbe will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo. They came away from that fixture with 49% of the possession and clocked up 22 attempts on goal with 6 on target. By comparison, Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo managed 5 attempts on goal, with 2 on target.
Skibbe will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 7 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 4 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, and they've kept a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games at EDION Stadium Hiroshima.
Their impressive run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 15 games in a row.
Yuki Ohashi will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Sanfrecce Hiroshima.
Kawasaki Frontale, Recent FormLast time out for Kawasaki Frontale resulted in a perhaps unsurprising 0-0 draw against Tokyo Verdy in a match they really wanted to win. They achieved 59% possession in that match and had 15 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Tokyo Verdy's tally of 18 efforts at goal, 6 of which were 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 4 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
It was not a positive ending for Kawasaki Frontale last time they met Sanfrecce Hiroshima in the league, with the game ending in a 3-2 defeat.
The Sanfrecce defence has struggled against Azzurro Nero in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 11 games.
With no real injury worries, Sanfrecce manager Michael Skibbe will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Kawasaki manager Tōru Oniki has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
