This could be an interesting match as Oita Trinita have their presumed home advantage while Cerezo Osaka are ahead 13 points in the J-League table.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Trinita and Cerezo Osaka.

5-4-5 (win-draw-lost) are the J-League numbers at home for Oita Trinita so far this season.

A nice win for Trinita last time playing, versus Kawasaki Frontale. That was also a home game and the match ended 1-0 with N. Nomura scoring for the victors. A strong away win before that one, visiting Yokohama and winning 3-2.

There will be little rest for Trinita after this match as they are travelling to Nagoya Grampus for a J-League game in only three days.

Trinita have scored 11 league goals here from 14 matches, not a lot. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Trinita's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 15 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Cerezo Osaka form and stats

The visitors are W8-D1-L5 on the road this term. That's in the J-League. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Cerezo are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

The manager M. Lotina Oruecheberría was unhappy after their last game, a J-League match played at their home ground Yanmar Stadium Nagai. Cerezo Osaka suffered a 0-1 loss to Sanfrecce Hiroshima (placed 8th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Shimizu S-Pulse wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.

A new game in only four days for Cerezo, the J-League home match versus Yokohama. Busy days.

The travelling fans enjoy Cerezo's attacking play in away games, having scored 21 goals in 14 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Cerezo struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 22 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head

The most recent history between these sides is the Cerezo Osaka - Trinita 1-0 played earlier this season. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: one win for Trinita, three draws and six wins for Cerezo Osaka. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: seven games.
