Tokyo form and stats

When playing at home in the J-League, Tokyo have managed 8 wins, 2 draws and suffered 4 defeats from 14 games.

The Tokyo fans enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Sagan Tosu and win 3-2. Finally, a league victory after four games without. A very satisfying win for Tokyo against Sagan Tosu last time out as a late comeback secured the victory after trailing 0-2. The win was secured through Tawaratsumida's goal in the 87th minute. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of Cklamovski when Tawaratsumida scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 78th minute. Adailton (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 8.41/10. Adailton scored one goal, served one assist, hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 4 times.

Heartbreak before that as Tokyo lost 0-1 at Kawasaki Frontale's place.
