Goal Statistics

Sanfrecce Hiroshima have been consistent in front of goal of late, finding the net in 5 consecutive J-League games. Their PG of 1.6 against Kawasaki Frontale on Sunday suggests that run is likely to continue.

Scoring more than 1 goal looks like a tall order for Kawasaki Frontale, with Toru Oniki's men failing to score in 4 consecutive J-League matches.
