With the tense opening game out of the way it’s time for the second J3-League meeting of the season. YSCC eagerly anticipate Matsumoto Yamaga in front of their stadium regulars.

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.

YSCC form and stats

Last season, YSCC's league results were 11 wins, 7 draws and 10 losses, resulting in 8th spot in the J3-League. Over these 28 matches they scored 31 goals and conceded 33. Appearing at their own stadium in the previous season YSCC produced 4-4-6 (win-draw-lost) with 12 goals and 19 conceded. A J3-League draw at home so far for YSCC. Last season their home statistics were 4 wins, 4 draws and 6 defeats from 14 matches. YSCC have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.

YSCC are confident in defense, having played 183 minutes without conceding a goal in the league.

The home fans saw a 0-0 draw versus Matsumoto Yamaga last time out and are looking for a win here.

In the match before that, YSCC hosted Gifu and drew the game 0-0.

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

Early season league goal statistics from YSCC's 1 home game: 0 goals, 0 conceded.

Matsumoto Yamaga form and stats

Let's have a look at how Matsumoto Yamaga performed last season in the J2-League: They landed a 22nd position in the league table after playing out 7 victories, 13 draws and 22 defeats. In total they scored 36 and conceded 71 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 6 and lost 13 with 14/39 goals scored/conceded. 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 2 wins, 6 draws and 13 defeats from 21 matches.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to YSCC (placed 11th) in their previous outing. The match ended in a draw 0-0.

Prior to that result Matsumoto Yamaga won their away game at Kamatamare Sanuki. The scoreline was 2-1.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Matsumoto Yamaga playing away and similar expectations, we found 14 relevant matches. Results were three Matsumoto wins, five draws and six defeats.

2 goals so far away for Matsumoto Yamaga, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 1 league match away.
