It's still early in the J3-League season, but we are learning more and more about the teams. Here is the Grulla Morioka - Kataller Toyama preview!
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Grulla Morioka form and stats
Grulla Morioka are yet to win a home game, having collected 0 points from their first two J3-League games here at Hokujosogoundo Koen Kitakami Field. Grulla Morioka are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Hokujosogoundo Koen Kitakami Field, having lost their two previous games here.
The Grulla Morioka fans got no joy from their last match, a J3-League game also here at Hokujosogoundo Koen Kitakami Field: A 1-3 defeat against Fujieda MYFC (placed 7th). Before that, Morioka played out a draw 1-1 when visiting Fukushima United.
Grulla Morioka has scored 1 goal so far and conceded 7 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.
Kataller Toyama form and stats
A perfect away game record so far for the visitors in the J3-League, but they have only played once. Last season their away game stats were 3 wins, 3 draws and 0 defeats from 6 matches.
Kataller aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 180 league minutes without a goal. S. Hanai was the last player to find the net.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a J3-League home defeat versus Blaublitz Akita with 0-1 on the scoreboard. A 0-1 loss hosting Azul Claro Numazu before that.
As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Kataller Toyama has managed 4 goals and let in 3 from 1 match.
