Kashiwa Reysol form and stats

Kashiwa Reysol's results here at SANKYO FRONTIER Kashiwa Stadium in the J-League have been very modest with 4 victories, 1 draw and 8 defeats.

A strong away win for Kashiwa against Tokushima Vortis the last match, as Yusuke Segawa were on target. The attacker Cristiano was "man of the match" for Kashiwa with a rating of 8.12/10. Cristiano hit three key passes and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 2 times.

Ahead of that match, Kashiwa Reysol lost 1-3 at home to Sagan Tosu.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Kashiwa's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played seven games, won three matches, drawn two and lost two.

The Kashiwa Reysol fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 15 in 13 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Kashiwa defense is not exactly impregnable. 21 goals conceded from 13 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Yokohama form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Yokohama so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-10 (win-draw-lose).

Arthur Silva, Reo Yasunaga and Felipe Vizeu scored in Yokohama's previous match, the home game against Gamba Osaka that ended 3-1. Attacker Tatsuki Seko got a player rating of 7.81 in the game. "Man of the match" Seko served one assist, hit three key passes, dribled passed the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 33 successful passes (of 41 total).

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Cerezo Osaka wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Yokohama playing away, we found seven games. Results were one away win, one draw and five home wins.

Yokohama are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 6 goals from 13 away games. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Yokohama's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 34 goals in 13 travels. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 3 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head

Yokohama - Kashiwa 1-1 was the output when these two teams last met, also in this season. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: two - four - four (Kashiwa Reysol wins - draws - Yokohama wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), seven had two or less.
