📏 Form Guide

Tokyo Verdy
WLDWDD
Tokyo Verdy enter this game coming off the back of a 0-0 J1 League tied result against Kashiwa Reysol.
In that game, Tokyo Verdy managed 39% possession and 11 shots on goal with 4 of them on target. Kashiwa Reysol had 7 attempts at goal with 1 of them on target.
Their more recent scorelines highlight the fact that it has been a great time for the Tokyo Verdy defence. Tokyo Verdy have been mean at the back, seeing the total number of goals that have flown into the back of their net during their previous 6 matches standing at 4. Such a trend isn’t assured to be carried forward here, though.
Taking a look at their past results, Tokyo Verdy:
- haven't been beaten in the league by FC Tokyo in their previous 5 games.
- have not beaten FC Tokyo in their previous 4 league matches.
FC Tokyo
WLDLWL
Since a losing effort in their last game against Kawasaki Frontale in J1 League competition, FC Tokyo and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.
In that game, FC Tokyo had 57% possession and 9 shots on goal with 2 on target. On the other side, Kawasaki Frontale got 12 attempts at goal with 6 of them on target. Shin Yamada (55'), Tatsuya Ito (72') and Erison (83') scored for Kawasaki Frontale.
It has become apparent that FC Tokyo have had real problems scoring goals in their past six clashes, netting the disappointing return of just 4. In those fixtures, FC Tokyo have also seen the overall goal aggregate of their opponents equal 7.
Their prior results show that FC Tokyo:
- are winless against Tokyo Verdy in away games against them for the last 2 league matches.
- are undefeated by Tokyo Verdy in away games against them for the last 5 matches in the league. A very decent away record against them.
- are without a win away from home in their last 2 league games.

🗞️ Team News: FC Tokyo
FC Tokyo boss Rikizo Matsuhashi has to currently contend with reduced team options. Yuta Arai (Cruciate ligament injury), Keita Endo (Acromioclavicular joint dislocation) and In-hwan Baek (Hamstring injury) miss out here.
🧠 Prediction
When taking all factors into account, FC Tokyo have the firepower to put one past this Tokyo Verdy lineup, but that is unlikely to be enough to avoid defeat.
Our selection here is for a close game with a 2-1 winning score for Tokyo Verdy after the 90. Hopefully this is a good one.
