Sagan Tosu are welcoming Consadole Sapporo for another important game after their 2-1 result against 7th-placed Kashiwa Reysol.
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 Sagan Tosu and Consadole Sapporo.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 2000 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
Sagan Tosu form and stats
The story so far in the J-League for Sagan Tosu, who have the fewest scored goals (12) in J-League, at their home stadium (Best Amenity Stadium) is 2 wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Sagan after consecutive victories at their own ground.
A nice win for Sagan last time playing, versus Kashiwa Reysol. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-1 with R. Harakawa and D. Hayashi scoring for the victors. A 2-2 draw away before that, with Urawa Reds the opponent.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Sagan, as the J-League home game vs Yokohama F. Marinos is only three days away.
Sagan has scored 7 league goals at home this season, in 6 matches. Sagan are not conceding a lot of goals here at Best Amenity Stadium in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 4 from 6 matches.
Consadole Sapporo form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Consadole Sapporo so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 2-2-4 (win-draw-lose). Recent form does not give Consadole much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Sagan Tosu will be a tough nut to crack. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Consadole are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.
Consadole Sapporo failed to get anything from their last game, a J-League home match vs Urawa Reds (placed 6th) that ended with defeat 3-4. A 0-2 defeat away at Cerezo Osaka before that.
A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Consadole Sapporo, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun? Late heartbreak for Consadole in the Urawa Reds match, as the deciding 3-4 goal came deep into overtime.
A quick return to home after this game, as Consadole are hosting Gamba Osaka in the J-League only three days away.
Consadole have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 8 league away games 10 goals have been scored. Consadole have conceded 16 goals in these games.
