This could be an interesting match as Kagoshima United have their presumed home advantage while Kataller Toyama are ahead 1 point in the J3-League table.

Kagoshima United and Kataller Toyama should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

These teams have little in common geographically as Kataller Toyama have to travel 1200 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Kagoshima United form and stats

Kagoshima United have played three J3-League home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Kagoshima are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Kagoshima Kamoike Stadium, having lost their two previous games here.

Kagoshima are returning here after visiting Parceiro Nagano in a J3-League game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. R. Yonezawa scored the goal(s). Heartbreak before that as Kagoshima lost 1-2 at Sagamihara's place.

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

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Kagoshima here at Kagoshima Kamoike Stadium in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (2 from 3 games). Kagoshima United have conceded 6 goals in these home games, a significant number.
