As the visiting team in J2-League matches, Tochigi have produced an overall stat of 4-1-3 so far.

Tochigi delivered a 2-2 draw playing at home against Giravanz Kitakyushu (placed 2nd) in their previous match; a J2-League game. Prior to that result Tochigi won their away game at Ventforet Kofu. The scoreline was 1-0.

It looked so good for Tochigi 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.

After this away game Tochigi return home for a J2-League game against Tokushima Vortis. That game is only three sleeps after this.
