🏠Shonan Bellmare: Form and Statistics

Last Five Matches: WDLLW

With miles separating Shonan from the bottom spot, Shonan has done pretty well to stay in the midfield region. They are given an opportunity to push towards the gray regions if they can convert all points.

Shonan Bellmare was the better side against Tokyo Verdy last week despite playing without the twelfth man (on foreign turf). A goalless first half saw the two sides chase for points before a box-18 ruckus from a corner kick spill gave Shonan the advantage. A last-minute screamer just spoke side of the box from Luiz Phellype gave his team the 2-0 victory at full time.

Shonan has been terrible at home, with four points in the last twelve available. Five losses in the last nine league appearances, and it only means they push hard, especially with the recently gained momentum.

🏁 Shonan Bellmare: Lineup

Team: Eyes are critical of Shonan’s 3-1-4-2 lineup, choking the midfield with five players while leaving men to perform executions up front. The defenders were more valuable last game, keeping on their toes to maintain a clean sheet. A little bit of improvement on the midfield could guarantee a favorable outcome in this clash..

Players: Okuko was the inertia breaker last week, given the opposing midfield hell after his opening to set Luiz Phellype up for his dying minute topper. Fukuda has been cautioned with a card and must be careful in this match. There are no injury worries.

🔖 Predicted Lineup(3-1-4-2):

👤 Head Coach: Satoshi Yamaguchi

⛔ Out: Nil

✈️ Yokohama FC: Form and Statistics

Last Five Matches: LLLWL

The Fulies are on a winless drought, with nine recent games producing seven losses and two stalemates. At this rate, it will only take miracles and divine intervention for them to escape proper relegation.

Their game against Kashiwa Hitachi saw the side perpetually flop on first-half opportunities, which they paid dearly for in the second half.

In truth, the result could have been worse if the opposition had been more clinical, as their hospital passes caused numerous counter situations.

The first goal had defenders ball watching with howlers delivering the first goal to the opposition on a platter. The second goal saw the right flank completely unmanned, and a cross was buried into the net.

Although the Yokohama-sponsored side has a chance against Shonan here, it is a dead rubber situation unless they win consecutively against their next opponents, Vissel Kobe, which is quite unlikely.

🏁 Yokohama FC: Lineup

Team: As displayed against Kashiwa Reysol, Enthusiasm is poor in the camp, and while manager Patrick Kisnorbi is rumored to have been lost in the dressing room, it looks like they are relegation-prone, unless something new happens.

Players: Goalkeeper Iikura deserves a pat on the back for the numerous saves against Kashiwa, which could have prolonged the scoreline. It is a generally poor display from the players, and while form is not a problem, they suffer from too many cooks spoiling their broth.

🔖 Predicted Lineup (3-4-2-1): IIkura, Kato-Suwama-Deng-Matsubara, Kida-Watanabe, Miyaichi-Uenaka-Inoue, Lopes

👤 Head Coach: Shuhei Yomoda

⛔ Out: Nil
