FC Tokyo

FC Tokyo won’t want a repeat of their last result here following the 1-0 J1 League defeat in their last game at the hands of Fagiano Okayama.

In that match, FC Tokyo managed 62% possession and 14 attempts on goal with 2 of them on target. On the other side, Fagiano Okayama got 6 attempts at goal with 2 on target. Ryo Tabei (61') was the scorer for Fagiano Okayama.

An interesting trait of more recent FC Tokyo games is seeing a zero in the scoreline.

Taking their prior six matches leading up to this one, in as many as 5 of them a bet on BTTS would've lost. Such a pattern won’t necessarily be sustained into this game, of course.

Pre-game facts show that FC Tokyo:

• haven't won against Kashiwa Reysol in their last 2 league matches.
• are without a home win in the past 2 matches in the league.

It’s a low absenteeism rate, with just one fitness concern for the FC Tokyo manager Rikizo Matsuhashi to contend with from an otherwise fully-primed group. In-hwan Baek (Hamstring injury) misses out.

In an otherwise healthy group of players, there’s only a single fitness problem for the Kashiwa Reysol manager Ricardo Rodríguez to be concerned about. Daiki Sugioka (Hamstring injury) won’t be in action.

🔮 Prediction

In our opinion, FC Tokyo will need to apply a lot of pressure to get anything against this Kashiwa Reysol outfit who we think will end up scoring and staying ahead.

We’ve gone for a very competitive encounter with a 0-1 advantage for Kashiwa Reysol after 90 minutes.

Hoping for a good game.
