Venue: Ningineer Stadium (30000 seats)

This could be an interesting match as Ehime have their presumed home advantage while Omiya Ardija are ahead 17 points in the J2-League table.

It's no vacation for neither Ehime nor Omiya Ardija 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.

Omiya Ardija have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Omiya Ardija form and stats

5 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of Omiya Ardija playing as the away team in the J2-League this season. Omiya Ardija has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Omiya Ardija, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-5 versus Ehime. A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs JEF United.

The attacking power of Omiya Ardija when travelling is not overwhelming with 14 goals scored from 15 league matches away. As opposed to that, Omiya Ardija have seen the ball go into their own net 15 times on the road.
