- Oita Trinita have the fewest scored goals (23) in J-League
Tokushima Vortis and Oita Trinita should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Tokushima Vortis form and stats
With 4 J-League wins, 4 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, Tokushima Vortis are certainly not brimming with confidence.
Tokushima faced defeat in their previous match, away at Yokohama (3-5). As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today? Yuki Kakita, a forward, was the top performer for the team in that fixture, scoring a rating of 8.45 (out of 10). Kakita scored two goals, hit three key passes and had 22 successful passes (of 26 total).
Before that game, the 3-0 home victory against Sagan Tosu.This is expected to be a close game, with Tokushima Vortis perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Tokushima Vortis as a small favourite), we find eleven games. Tokushima Vortis has won four of these, drawn two and lost five.
Tokushima aren't scoring a lot here at Pocari Sweat Stadium in the league, with only 15 goals from 16 games. On the other hand, Tokushima have conceded 18 goals.
Oita Trinita form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Oita Trinita so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 1-1-13 (win-draw-lose). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Trinita have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 14 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Yokohama game.
Trinita have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper Shun Takagi. It's been 262 minutes since they last conceded in J-League.
Oita Trinita had fun at their own home (Pocari Sweat Stadium) last time out, beating Vegalta Sendai 2-0. Arata Watanabe (2) scored. The attacker Arata Watanabe got a match rating of 8.33 in that game. Watanabe scored two goals, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 28 successful passes (of 32 total).
Prior to that match, a home win 1-0 against Cerezo Osaka.As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found ten similar matches played by Oita Trinita in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Oita Trinita, three draws and four defeats.
The schedule is very tough for Trinita now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Emperor Cup game at Jubilo Iwata is waiting in only four days.
The attacking power of Trinita when travelling is not overwhelming with 8 goals scored from 15 league matches away. The Trinita manager T. Katanosaka has some worries about the defense as 30 goals have been conceded in these travels.
