Ehime form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the J2-League this season. Ehime have only managed 1 win, 7 draws and 9 losses from their games here at Ningineer Stadium. With twelve home J2-League games in a row without a win, the Ehime fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Matsumoto Yamaga game long ago, can be stopped today.

Ehime drew their last game, 2-2 away at Jubilo Iwata (placed 1st).

Before that match, a win away at Ryūkyū.

The manager N. Saneyoshi will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Zweigen Kanazawa in only four days.

Ehime are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 17 goals in 17 games. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Ehime with 35 goals conceded in these matches.
