Tokushima Vortis form and stats

Tokushima Vortis, who have the the best goal difference (+34) in J2-League, have played 19 J2-League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 10-6-3 (wins-draws-losses). Tokushima Vortis has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Pocari Sweat Stadium. We remember; it was Albirex Niigata.

The fans are hoping that Tokushima will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the J2-League game against Mito Hollyhock (placed 10th). Previous to that game, a home match hosting Giravanz Kitakyushu in a game that was won 4-1.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the J2-League game versus Omiya Ardija in only three days. This game is also played here at Pocari Sweat Stadium.
