Cerezo Osaka, Recent FormThe 1-0 away defeat to Gamba Osaka will not have sat easily with the Cerezo Osaka squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. In that game they had 65% possession and managed 10 attempts on goal, with 0 on target, compared to Gamba Osaka who had 16 attempts and 8 on target.
Akio Kogiku will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 6 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 6 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games; however, overall they've scored in 11 of their 12 games this season.
There will be mixed feelings from Sakura, although undefeated in their last 6 league games at home, 2 of these games ended in a draw.
Léo Ceará will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 6 goals in the last 6 league outings for Cerezo Osaka.
Vissel Kobe, Recent FormVissel Kobe head into this match with some confidence in the knowledge that they recorded a solid 3-2 home win against Albirex Niigata in their last league encounter. Their share of possession in that meeting was 36%, while racking up 16 shots along the way, 7 of which were on target. Albirex Niigata had 10 shots on goal with 3 on target.
Manager Takayuki Yoshida will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period. When playing away from home, they have scored in 5 of their last 6 games and are on a run of 2 consecutive clean sheets.
With 3 straight wins in a row away from home, they have started to put together a nice run of form, which has also seen them undefeated in their last 10 away games.
On an individual basis, Yuya Osako will be looking to cause Cerezo Osaka some problems having scored 2 goals in Vissel Kobe's last 6 away games in the league.
It was one to forget for Cerezo Osaka last time they met Vissel Kobe in the league, falling to a 1-0 defeat.
Playing away from home, Vissel have conceded a goal in 3 of their last 3 league games against Cerezo.
Playing at home, Cerezo have won the last 2 and are unbeaten in the last 7 times they have faced Vissel in the league.
With no real injury worries, Cerezo manager Akio Kogiku will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Vissel manager Takayuki Yoshida has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
