Gamba Osaka form and stats
5-1-5 (win-draw-lost) are the J-League numbers at home for Gamba Osaka so far this season.
It's back home for Gamba, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Oita Trinita away with the result 1-0. Patric found the net in that victory. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Yokohama F. Marinos that ended 1-1.
The victory against Oita Trinita came after Patric's winning goal. The Gamba manager T. Miyamoto was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 46th minute.
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 Gamba Osaka have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 15 matches with the results: Won seven, drawn zero and lost eight.
Gamba are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 13 goals in 11 games. 14 goals have been conceded.
Kashiwa Reysol form and stats
The visitors are W6-D2-L3 on the road this term. That's in the J-League.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Kashiwa, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 2-3 versus Shonan Bellmare (placed 18th). A 1-1 draw was the result before that, hosting Urawa Reds.
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 four relevant matches. Results were four Kashiwa wins, zero draws and zero defeats.
The schedule is very tough for Kashiwa Reysol now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A J-League game at Tokyo is waiting in only four days.
The travelling fans enjoy Kashiwa Reysol's attacking play in away games, having scored 19 goals in 11 league matches away. 12 goals have been conceded by Kashiwa in these games.
