Yokohama F. Marinos have played 7 J-League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 4-1-2 (wins-draws-losses). Two home wins in a row for Yokohama bring valid hopes of a third.

J. Amano was able to secure the draw 1-1 in the game against Consadole Sapporo (after extra-time, 4-5 on penalties) after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?

Yokohama are traveling soon after this match as the J-League match at Nagoya Grampus awaits in four days.

Kawasaki Frontale form and stats

Kawasaki Frontale, who have the most scored goals (41) in J-League, have an excellent away record in the J-League so far with 5-1-1 from 7 games.

It's the second away game in a row for Kawasaki Frontale, but there's smiles all around after the 6-0 victory versus Vissel Kobe (placed 10th) in the Nabisco Cup last time out. That result followed a home victory 5-0 versus Shimizu S-Pulse in the J-League.

As you can tell from the results above, Kawasaki Frontale was very dominant against Vissel Kobe, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 6-0 (!) with A. Ienaga, M. Saito, Y. Kobayashi (2), Y. Wakizaka and T. Miyashiro providing the goals.

A new game in only four days for Kawasaki, the J-League home match versus Vissel Kobe. Busy days.

The prediction for this game is lots of goals as Kawasaki alone have scored more than three on average in their league games away (21 from 7 played). 7 goals have been conceded by Kawasaki in these games.

Head 2 Head
