It's still early in the J-League season, but we are learning more and more about the teams. Here is the Kashiwa Reysol - Shonan Bellmare preview!

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Kashiwa Reysol form and stats

Three J-League home games done for Kashiwa Reysol, who are not happy collecting 3 points from these matches. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Kashiwa Reysol to get some points in this home game. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Kashiwa, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

Kashiwa Reysol faced defeat in their previous match, away at Kawasaki Frontale (1-3). Preceding that match was the home game against Yokohama that was lost 1-3.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Kashiwa have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 14 games) they have won seven times, drawn two and lost five.

Kashiwa are traveling soon after this match as the J-League match at Urawa Reds awaits in four days.
