Things are looking good for Oita Trinita so far, with their 5th place in the J2-League table and eagerly waiting for Montedio Yamagata (who are in 11th).

Insights:
  • Oita Trinita have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Montedio Yamagata have the fewest clean sheets (3) in J2-League

These teams have little in common geographically as Montedio Yamagata have to travel 1200 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
