Gamba Osaka Preview – Can Gamba Osaka halt losing streak?
Thursday’s hosts, Gamba Osaka, will be looking to end a miserable four-match winning streak when they play host to Tokushima Vortis at their Panasonic Stadium Suita following recent defeats against Kawasaki Frontale, Sanfrecce Hiroshima, Urawa Reds and FC Tokyo respectively.
More worrying is the fact that all three of the former losses were incurred at home while the bigger picture shows that Gamba Osaka have failed to win any of their last seven matches and have gained just one win from their previous 13 matches, which came in the shape of a 1-0 win away at Sagan Tosu.
A home record of 0-2-3 1/7 has seen Gamba Osaka off to a slow start at home and the hosts have now failed to win any of their last eight at home, failing to score in six of these games.
Tokushima Vortis Preview – Can Tokushima continue revival?
13th placed Tokushima Vortis seem to be recovering from their recent four-match losing streak as the visitors have bounced back with a 1-0 win away at Sanfrecce Hiroshima and then held Nagoya Grampus to a 0-0 draw at home.
Defeats against Kashima Antlers, Kashiwa Reysol, Sagan Tosu and Consadole Sapporo have resulted in Tokushima occupying a place in the bottom half of the J-League but they’ve at least gained wins on the road at Shimizu S-Pulse, Cerezo Osaka and Sanfrecce Hiroshima.
Having lost their last four visits to Gamba Osaka, Tokushima may at last stand a decent chance of getting something out of their hosts in this one.
