Under three goals per game were recorded in 5 of the past 6 fixtures where Albirex Niigata have been participants.

- haven’t won at home in the past 10 matches in the league. Something needs to change.

FC Tokyo have the ability to put one past this Albirex Niigata side, although that may not quite be as many as the goals that they could concede.
