Season ticket holders at Ishin Me-Life Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Renofa Yamaguchi languishing in the 22nd position so far. The guesting Zweigen Kanazawa will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
Renofa Yamaguchi and Zweigen Kanazawa should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Renofa Yamaguchi form and stats
3-0-4 (win-draw-lost) are the J2-League numbers at home for Renofa Yamaguchi so far this season.
Yamaguchi's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-2 versus Machida Zelvia (placed 15th). A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at ThespaKusatsu Gunma.
There will be little rest for Renofa Yamaguchi after this match as they are travelling to Montedio Yamagata for a J2-League game in only four days.
The Yamaguchi fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 7 matches. Yamaguchi have conceded 9 in these home matches.
Zweigen Kanazawa form and stats
The visitors, who have the most scored goals (15) away in J2-League, are W3-D0-L5 on the road this term. That's in the J2-League. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on M. Yanagishita, the Kanazawa manager, as the last three away games were defeats.
Kanazawa lost away at Jubilo Iwata (0-6) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. A 1-1 draw was the result before that, hosting Montedio Yamagata.
As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Jubilo Iwata was particularly ugly (0-6). The humiliation is still top of mind.
After this away game Kanazawa return home for a J2-League game against Ryukyu. That game is only four sleeps after this.
The travelling fans enjoy Kanazawa's attacking play in away games, having scored 15 goals in 8 league matches away. For Kanazawa, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
