Gamba Osaka form and stats

The total J-League statistics playing at home this season for Gamba Osaka are 1-3-1 (wins-draws-losses).

The club members are hoping that Gamba Osaka will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-4 away loss in the match against Kashima Antlers (placed 9th). Gamba were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Alano hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 29 successful passes (of 35 total).

In the match before that, Gamba Osaka hosted Yokohama and drew the game 1-1.

The manager Algaba will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Nagoya Grampus in only three days.

Gamba are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 7 goals in 5 games. Gamba Osaka's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 6 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Cerezo Osaka form and stats

1 win, 1 draw and 2 losses. That’s the product of Cerezo Osaka playing as the away team in the J-League this season.

Cerezo Osaka might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Sanfrecce Hiroshima proved too strong as Cerezo Osaka slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Yanmar Stadium Nagai. Cerezo goalkeeper Kim could take pride in a fine day at work against Sanfrecce Hiroshima, but even with pulling off seven saves the beating could not be evaded.

Before that, Cerezo Osaka secured a home win against Kashiwa Reysol with the score 1-0.

A quick return to home after this game, as Cerezo Osaka are hosting Kashima Antlers in the J-League only four days away.

As opposed to that, Cerezo have seen the ball go into their own net 5 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

Cerezo Osaka have put together a sequence of 6 consecutive games without defeat (4-2-0) when facing Gamba Osaka.
