It's still early in the J3-League season, but we are learning more and more about the teams. Here is the Blaublitz Akita - Parceiro Nagano preview!
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Blaublitz and Parceiro Nagano.
Blaublitz Akita form and stats
The hosts won their first J3-League game here at Akita Yabase Stadium, lifting spirits. Home statistics for Blaublitz Akita last season were 1 win, 3 draws and 1 loss from 5 games.
The Blaublitz Akita goalkeeper Yudai Tanaka is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 499 minutes without conceding a goal in the J3-League.
Happy days for Blaublitz Akita in their previous game, a J3-League match away at Kataller Toyama (placed 13th) that ended with a 1-0 victory. A strong away win before that one, visiting Vanraure Hachinohe and winning 2-0.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Blaublitz have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found six games) they have won three times, drawn two and lost one.
Early season league goal statistics from Blaublitz Akita's 1 home game: 2 goals, 0 conceded.
Parceiro Nagano form and stats
Things could have gone better for Parceiro Nagano in their J3-League away matches, but 2 points from 2 games is all right. Two points from the last two away games for Parceiro, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.
Parceiro are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the J3-League against Fukushima United (placed 14th). Before that, Parceiro Nagano travelled to Sagamihara and returned home with a draw after the game finished 0-0.
We have checked recent matches where Parceiro have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those five games were two victories, three draws and zero defeats.
It's early days yet, but Parceiro Nagano has scored 1 and conceded 1 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
