Albirex Niigata, Recent FormLosing 3-2 away to Vissel Kobe won't leave the Albirex Niigata squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 14 places above them in the league. During that encounter they had 64% possession and had 10 attempts on goal with 3 on target, while their opponents hit 7 of their 16 shots on goal.
Manager Rikizo Matsuhashi will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 6 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 9 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 10 of their 12 games.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Urawa Red Diamonds, Recent FormUrawa Red Diamonds will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 2-1 home win against Yokohama F. Marinos. They came away from that fixture with a 50% share of the possession and clocked up 18 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Yokohama F. Marinos, who managed 12 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
Per-Mathias Høgmo will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 8 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 7 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
In the most recent meeting between these teams, they both managed to find the net, but the game finished in a 1-1 draw.
