It's advantage Giravanz Kitakyushu so far with their 6th position in the J2-League table, welcoming Tochigi who are placed 10th.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

These teams have little in common geographically as Tochigi have to travel 1100 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Tochigi form and stats

7-4-6 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Tochigi in their J2-League matches away.

There might be some fixture complaints from Tochigi as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the J2-League match against Tokushima Vortis (0-2). Before that, Tochigi secured a home win against Kyoto Sanga with the score 1-0.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Tochigi as they have only managed to score 14 times from 17 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (15 so far).
