Gifu form and stats

The complete J3-League statistics playing at home this season for Gifu are 6-1-3 (wins-draws-losses). Gifu has recorded two wins in a row here at Nagaragawa Stadium, increasing their hopes of victory in this match.

The Gifu regulars enjoyed the previous fixture, watching their team host YSCC and win 3-0. At last, a league win after three matches without one.

Preceding that game was the away draw at Ehime that finished 1-1.

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 Gifu have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 12 matches with the results: Won 3, drawn 5 and lost 4.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Gifu as they have a new game in only four days, a J3-League match thankfully also at home. Fujieda MYFC are visiting.

A decent goal production from Gifu in their home games so far, with 17 goals from 10 league matches. On the other hand, Gifu have conceded 12 goals.
