Roasso Kumamoto form and stats

Roasso Kumamoto's struggle is real here at Egao Kenko Stadium with only 14 points collected from 14 J2-League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 4-2-8. The home stadium (Egao Kenko Stadium) is supposed to be a fortress, but for Roasso Kumamoto it's been a house of straw as the last six games here have all been lost. Can they turn things around?

Roasso Kumamoto's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-3 versus Oita Trinita (placed 4th).

Before that one, a strong away victory at Sagan Tosu (after extra-time). A Emperor Cup match. The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Roasso Kumamoto have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites).
