Kyoto Sanga form and stats

The overall J-League results at home this season for Kyoto Sanga are 4-0-6 (wins-draws-losses). When Kyoto Sanga hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Gamba Osaka, Yokohama, Kyoto Sanga, Shonan Bellmare and Albirex Niigata), they have won 2 of 2 matches! Two home wins in a row for Kyoto bring valid hopes of a third.

Kyoto Sanga's last game was hosting Nagoya Grampus (placed 3rd) and winning 2-1. Manager Cho felt very clever after Patric scored the winning goal against Nagoya Grampus, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 77th minute. The striker Yamasaki was declared "man of the match" for Kyoto Sanga with a rating of 7.71/10. Yamasaki scored one goal and hit three key passes.

A defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Gamba Osaka.

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 Kyoto have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 7 matches with the results: Won 3, drawn 2 and lost 2.

Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 15 goals have been conceded.
