Season ticket holders at Ningineer Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Ehime languishing in the 21st position so far. The guesting Mito Hollyhock will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
- Ehime has the fewest points (10) at home in J2-League
- Mito Hollyhock has the most scored goals (63) in J2-League
It's no vacation for neither Ehime nor Mito Hollyhock 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.
These teams have little in common geographically as Mito Hollyhock have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Ehime form and stats
Ehime's struggle is real here at Ningineer Stadium with only 10 points collected from 17 J2-League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-4-11. With ten 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 Omiya Ardija game long ago, can be stopped today.
Ehime are returning here after visiting Albirex Niigata in a J2-League game and winning with a 3-0 scoreline. Y. Naganuma and S. Niwa (2) scored the goal(s). Preceding that match was a defeat to ThespaKusatsu Gunma (0-1).
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Ehime as they are travelling to their away game against Omiya Ardija in the J2-League. That match is three days after this one.
Ehime aren't scoring a lot here at Ningineer Stadium in the league, with only 12 goals from 17 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Ehime have conceded 26 from these games.
Mito Hollyhock form and stats
As the visiting team in J2-League matches, Mito Hollyhock, who have the most scored goals (63) in J2-League, have produced an overall stat of 8-4-6 so far.
There were no winners in Hollyhock's previous match, a J2-League home game that ended 2-2 vs Giravanz Kitakyushu (placed 4th). Preceding that game was the away victory against Tochigi with the score of 3-1.
It looked so good for Hollyhock vs Giravanz Kitakyushu, but the job was not completed and victory was lost as a 2-0 lead was turned into a 2-2 draw.
A new game in only three days for Hollyhock, the J2-League home match versus Júbilo Iwata. Busy days.
The travelling fans enjoy Hollyhock's attacking play in away games, having scored 35 goals in 18 league matches away. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Hollyhock have conceded 27 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
