J-League: Nagoya Grampus receive Sagan Tosu in what promises to be an appealing football game. Tipsway gives you all the pre-match info you need!

Insights:
  • Nagoya Grampus have not yet lost a game at home.
  • Sagan Tosu have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

These teams have little in common geographically as Sagan Tosu have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Nagoya Grampus form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Nagaragawa Stadium as Nagoya Grampus have scored 21 goals to get 31 points from 15 games. The overall stats in the J-League are 8-7-0 (wins-draws-losses). In general it's been a long time since Grampus tasted defeat here at Nagaragawa Stadium, as they have taken at least one point from their last 15 home games in the league.

A good away victory last time out for Nagoya Grampus, who won 1-0 against Gamba Osaka (placed 13th). What a relief, as that was the first league victory after playing, but not winning, six consecutive matches. Midfielder Izumi was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.65 (out of ten) in that game. Izumi served one assist, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 3 of 5 times.

Preceding that game, a home defeat in the Nabisco Cup against Avispa Fukuoka.

Grampus are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 21 goals in 15 games. Nagoya Grampus have only conceded 11 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
