Yokohama form and stats

Yokohama have played 13 games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-3-4 (wins-draws-losses). Yokohama has a nice streak going on as they have played ten consecutive games without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Tokushima Vortis defeat.

The home supporters saw a 0-0 draw versus Mito Hollyhock in the J2-League last time out and are looking for a win here. Before that match, a win away at Avispa Fukuoka.

This is expected to be a close game, with Yokohama perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Yokohama as a small favourite), we find 13 games. Yokohama has won 3 of these, drawn 6 and lost 4.
