๐ Form Guide
Thespa Kusatsu
DDWWDL
Thespa Kusatsu wonโt want a repeat of their last result here after the 2-1 J2 League loss in their previous game against V-Varen Nagasaki.
The only player to score from Thespa Kusatsu was Ryo Sato (48'). Juanma Delgado (64') and Serinsariu Joppu (81') scored for V-Varen Nagasaki.
Their more recent scorelines really do illustrate the point that much solidity has been shown by the Thespa Kusatsu rearguard. Thespa Kusatsu have been miserly, with the total number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper during their previous 6 outings standing at 3. That sort of trend isnโt assured to follow through into this next game, though.
Iwaki
DDDWLL
Since a losing effort in their last game against Tokushima Vortis in J2 League competition, Iwaki will be hoping to turn things around here.
Ryoga Ishio (23') and Kohei Uchida (90') scored for Tokushima Vortis.
Yuzo Tamura's Iwaki have seen their goal attempts be successful a total of 6 times throughout their most recent six matches. The aggregate of goals that have been scored against them during those same clashes equals 7.
โ๏ธ Head to head
The last league match featuring the two was J2 League match day 10 on 16/04/2023 and the score finished Iwaki 2-1 Thespa Kusatsu.
The referee was Shuhei Shimizu.
๐๏ธ Team News: Thespa Kusatsu

โน๏ธ Team News: Iwaki

๐ฎ Prediction
Iwaki and Thespa Kusatsu might both not be able to do quite enough to get on the scoresheet here.
At this stage, it appears to have the makings of a possible draw. Weโre therefore expecting a very even match with a 0-0 scoreline at the end of the 90 minutes.
