The J-League season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between Tokyo and Shonan Bellmare promises to be an interesting one.
It's no vacation for neither Tokyo nor Shonan Bellmare as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Tokyo form and stats
Only two J-League home games for Tokyo so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat.
Happy days for Tokyo in their previous game, a J-League match away at Oita Trinita (placed 9th) that ended with a 1-0 victory. Preceding that match was the home game against Vissel Kobe that was lost 2-3.
The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Tokyo's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played nine games, won six matches, drawn one and lost two.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Tokyo, as the J-League home game vs Vegalta Sendai is only four days away.
At Ajinomoto Stadium, Tokyo has the goal stats of 5-5 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
Shonan Bellmare form and stats
It's not happening yet for Shonan Bellmare on their J-League travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? With two straight losses from their last two away games, Shonan Bellmare are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
The supporters enjoyed Bellmare's previous game versus Vegalta Sendai (placed 18th), a J-League 3-1 win played at home. A 1-3 defeat away at Kashima Antlers before that.
As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Shonan Bellmare playing away, we found eight games. Results were zero away wins, three draws and five home wins.
After this away game Bellmare return home for a J-League game against Cerezo Osaka. That game is only four sleeps after this.
As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Shonan Bellmare has managed 2 goals and let in 5 from 2 matches.
