Júbilo Iwata prepare for this fixture following on from a 0-0 J2 League drawn result vs Montedio Yamagata.
Over their last 6 games, John Hutchison's Júbilo Iwata have managed to score a combined total of 9 times resulting in an average number of goals per match of 1.5.
Following on from a losing effort in their last game against Urawa Red Diamonds in J1 League competition, Shimizu S-Pulse and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.
In that match, Shimizu S-Pulse managed 56% possession and 22 shots at goal with 6 on target. Urawa Red Diamonds had 8 attempts at goal with 3 of them on target. Ryoma Watanabe (4'), Matheus Sávio (59') and Shūsaku Nishikawa (79' Own goal) scored for Urawa Red Diamonds.
The numbers tell their own story, and Shimizu S-Pulse have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, with opponents netting 7 goals in total. Defensively, Shimizu S-Pulse could really do with shoring things up. We will have to find out if that trend will end up being sustained into this next match.
Looking over their past head to head meetings dating back to 14/04/2019 shows us that Júbilo Iwata have won 1 of them & Shimizu S-Pulse 3, with the number of draws standing at 2.
A combined sum of 16 goals were produced between them in this period, with 7 of them from Júbilo Iwata and 9 coming from Shimizu. That is an average goals per game value of 2.67.
The previous league game featuring the two was J2 League match day 38 on 07/10/2023 when it finished Shimizu S-Pulse 1-0 Júbilo Iwata.
The match was refereed by Yuichi Nishimura.
Thanks to a mainly available group, there’s just the lone fitness worry for the Shimizu S-Pulse boss Tadahiro Akiba to contend with. Sena Saito (Meniscus injury) misses out for this game.
We think that Júbilo Iwata will really need to work well to register a score against this Shimizu S-Pulse lineup who we think should manage to get a goal of their own in a winning performance.
We’re going for a very even contest with a 0-1 winning score for Shimizu S-Pulse at the end of the 90.
Hopefully it’s a good one.
