Tokyo vs Shimizu-S-Pulse J-League Match Preview and Analysis

FC Tokyo

FC Tokyo is looking to edge closer to top three if not securing it after this game. The hosts are currently in 7^th spot, a position that keeps them right in the middle of a heated battle for the top prize at the end of the season. They have the third-best home run with 6W, 4D and only 1L in 11 home games this far. This duel against Shimizu should be another chance to improve their home performance. They dominated the visitors in the last 7 meetings, winning 6 and losing once. With another home advantage, this fixture is largely in favour of FC Tokyo.

Shimizu S-Pulse

The visitors occupy the last spot on J-League table after 23 games. It has been a bad game after another. However, they have been exceptional on the road despite being relegation candidates. Shimizu is ranked the 6^th best team away from home after bagging 3W, 4D and losing 4 matches in 11 trips. A big worry for the visitors is their poor record of only 5W, 3D and a whooping 12 losses in the last 20 duels. They lost six times against the hosts in the last 7 duels.
