Two away games in a row for Gamba, whose manager Algaba could celebrate last time after the win against Kawasaki Frontale. As you can tell from the result, the match against Kawasaki Frontale was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today? The end of the last match, against Kawasaki Frontale, was very satisfying as Dawhan scored the winning goal deep into overtime. Midfield player Alano was the top player of the team with a match rating of 8.4/10. Alano scored one goal, served one assist, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 3 of 5 times.
Prior to that match, a home win 1-0 against Kyoto Sanga.As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day.

Gamba Osaka have scored 14 goals on their travels this season, from 11 away games in the league. The Gamba manager Algaba has some worries about the defense as 25 goals have been conceded in these travels.
