Gifu form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Gifu, who have the the worst goal difference (-41) in J2-League, so far with only 11 points returning home. The records show 3-2-15 (win-draw-lose). With the Gifu losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Gifu are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a J2-League home defeat versus Ventforet Kofu with 1-3 on the scoreboard. Prior to that match, the Gifu manager M. Kitano faced defeat when travelling to Albirex Niigata and losing 0-2.

The attacking power of Gifu when travelling is not overwhelming with 13 goals scored from 20 league matches away. In the opposite end, Gifu have conceded 35 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

The last H2H meeting was Gifu - Tokyo Verdy 1-2, played this season. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: 5 - 3 - 2 (Tokyo Verdy wins - draws - Gifu wins). As for goals, 5 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 5 had two or less.
