Kashima Antlers form and stats

7 victories, 3 draws and 3 defeats. That’s what Kashima Antlers have to build on here at Kashima Soccer Stadium in the J-League. Kashima has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Kashima Soccer Stadium. We remember; it was Kyoto Sanga.

Kashima Antlers's previous game was also played at home, ending 1-0 versus Cerezo Osaka (placed 6th). The home side are looking to build on that result. The forward Suzuki outshone all teammates in that match and managed a match rating of 8.15 out of 10. Suzuki scored one goal, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 3 of 5 times.

Ahead of that game, a home defeat in the Nabisco Cup against Nagoya Grampus (after extra-time). The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Kashima have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 9 matches with the results: Won 2, drawn 2 and lost 5.

The Kashima Antlers fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 19 in 13 matches. Kashima Antlers have only conceded 11 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
