Cerezo Osaka form and stats
Three J-League home games done for Cerezo Osaka, who are not happy collecting 2 points from these matches.
Cerezo are returning here after visiting Kawasaki Frontale and winning with a 4-1 scoreline. Inui (2) and Yamada (2) scored the goal(s). Midfield player Okuno got a match rating of 8.45 in that game, the max score being 10. Okuno hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.
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 Cerezo Osaka have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 13 matches with the results: Won six, drawn three and lost four.
4 goals have been conceded.
Kashiwa Reysol form and stats
Things could have gone better for Kashiwa Reysol in their J-League away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.
Kashiwa Reysol had fun at their own home last time out, beating Jubilo Iwata 2-0. Toshima and Sávio scored. Midfield player Mitsumaru was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.34/10. Mitsumaru served one assist, hit two key passes and had 39 successful passes (of 47 total).
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Kashiwa Reysol playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were seven Kashiwa wins, one draw and one defeat.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Kashiwa Reysol manager Júnior as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Kawasaki Frontale.
Kashiwa Reysol are defending well in their away games, having conceded only 2 times in 3 matches. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
