Tokyo form and stats

Tokyo have collected 8 points from their J-League home games so far after 2-2-0. With three draws from their last three games overall it has been a case of neither great nor terrible for Tokyo.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 294 minutes without scoring a league goal. Diego was the last player to find the net. Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Jakub Slowik not having conceded a league goal in 348 minutes.

The regulars are hoping that Tokyo will fight back in this game, putting things right after the 1-2 away defeat in the Nabisco Cup fixture against Júbilo Iwata.

Before that, Tokyo drew at home versus Nagoya Grampus.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Tokyo have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found twelve games) they have won six times, drawn two and lost four.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Tokyo as they are travelling to their away game against Avispa Fukuoka in the J-League. That match is four days after this one.

Tokyo has scored 5 league goals at home this season, in 4 matches. Tokyo have only conceded 2 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Gamba Osaka form and stats

The visitors are W1-D3-L0 on the road this term. That's in the J-League. It's three draws from Gamba Osaka's last three away games, a decent catch but one that could be so much better.

It's another away match for the visitors, as they travelled to Cerezo Osaka in their previous outing. The Nabisco Cup fixture ended 0-0.

A loss against Shonan Bellmare was the result prior to that, in a J-League home game.

We have checked recent matches where Gamba have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those eight games were four victories, two draws and two defeats.

Gamba Osaka are defending well in their away games, having conceded only 3 times in 4 matches. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
