WWLDLL
Since a losing effort in their last game against Vissel Kobe in J1 League action, Fagiano Okayama and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.
In that match, Fagiano Okayama managed 46% possession and 6 attempts at goal with 1 of them on target. Vissel Kobe had 21 shots on goal with 7 of them on target. Taisei Miyashiro (51') and Yōsuke Ideguchi (73') scored for Vissel Kobe.
A sequence of reliable showings from the Fagiano Okayama defenders has seen the number of goals they’ve conceded standing at 4 from their last 6 fixtures in total. During the same period of time, their own attack force has managed to score 4. Let’s see if that trend will be sustained into this next match.
Going into this one, Fagiano Okayama are without a win away from home in their last 2 league games.
