Kyoto Sanga form and stats

Kyoto Sanga have collected 15 points from their J-League home games so far after 4-3-5.

The fans are hoping that Kyoto Sanga will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the match against Shimizu S-Pulse (placed 11th).

Preceding that match was the home game against Kashiwa Reysol that was lost 1-2.

Not much happening? Looking at this team's last 17 league matches, 13 have contained zero, one or two goals.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Kyoto as they have a new game in only four days, a Emperor Cup match thankfully also at home. Tokyo Verdy are visiting.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Kyoto Sanga here at Sanga Stadium by Kyocera in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (11 from 12 games). 13 goals have been conceded.

Vissel Kobe form and stats

There's been little loot from Vissel Kobe's travels as they have only collected 13 points from 14 away games in the J-League. Vissel Kobe only have 3 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 4 draws.

This game can not go any worse than the previous one, a AFC Champions League home loss versus Jeonbuk Motors with 1-3 on the scoreboard. That win felt good as this team had gone three league games without winning. Midfielder Kobayashi was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.35. Kobayashi hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

Before that game, the win at home against Yokohama F. Marinos in the AFC Champions League (3-2).

A new game in only four days for Vissel, the Emperor Cup home match versus Kashima Antlers. Busy days.

The visitors have scored 12 goals from 14 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. In the opposite end, Vissel Kobe have conceded 21 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

Kyoto Sanga have managed a sequence of 4 consecutive games without defeat (3-1-0) when facing Vissel Kobe.

The duelists have met previously this season: Vissel Kobe - Kyoto 1-3.
