Albirex Niigata Gamba Osaka betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This confrontation tends to be a bit unbalanced, considering that the host has a cast of only medium quality and struggles to leave the relegation zone, while the visitor has a cast of good quality and fight among the first placed. In addition, Albirex Niigata presents serious problems in both their defense and their attack, while Gamba Osaka has one of the most positive attacks of the Japanese Championship and one of the less leaked defense. In view of these factors, we believe that Gamba Osaka will play for the best squad and best phase to win at least one draw away from their dominions.

In the last match, they tied in an away match against Yokohama F. Marinos, by (1‑1).

The team has had problems scoring first, since they have only opened up the score once in the last 11 matches. They have conceded the first goal in 10 of their 11 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around. there is 1 period that stands out in the last 5 home matches for all competitions: they have suffered 4 of their 7 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Albirex Niigata has been campaigning quite unsatisfactory at the start of the Japanese Championship and is among the last placed with only 17% of the points played so far, so it is necessary to start the reaction to leave the relegation zone. The team scored 3 goals, being the fourth worst attack of the national, and conceded 6 goals, having the third defense more leaked and these figures help to explain the bad current moment, being necessary to adjust in both the offensive system and the defensive to leave the uncomfortable situation they are in. Playing at home, as this match on Saturday, Albirex Niigata made only 1 match and was defeated by Shimizu S Pulse 2-0 in the game where they created fewer opportunities, had less possession and deserved to leave with the setback. In the overall competition, counting the games as the principal and as a visitor, the team tends to be more efficient offensively in the second half, since 2 of their 3 goals happened in the second stage, one being between 60 and 75 minutes and another between 75 and 90 minutes.
