The home team will welcome the last team of the table Júbilo Iwata.
FC Tokyo had to suffer a 0-3 defeat to Urawa Red Diamonds last weekend, but now they have a great opportunity to make it right. The seventh team in the table hasn't had a good season over the last month, with three defeats, one draw and only one win in five league games. In addition, they have dropped out of the Emperors Cup.
But if the home team has a chance to get points somewhere, it is definitely on their turf, where they have known the bitterness of defeat only once in the last eleven games. For interest, in away games they have a miserable success rate - 27%.
Iwata is a three-time champion of Japan, all three titles the club collected at the turn of the millennium. The current situation is much sadder, Júbilo dominated the second league last year and returned to the elite after two years, but they are not good enough yet, after 21 rounds they are in the last place.
They have won only once in its last eight games, at home against Sagan Tosu, but that win is a month old. In the last three games, the team has failed to score a single goal.
On the road, Júbilo has a poor 10% success rate and in Tokyo they will have to deal with one extra big problem, the absence of the key of their defence, stopper Makito Ito, due to yellow cards. He has started every game in the league so far this season.
In a clash between Tokyo, playing well at home, and Iwata, playing poorly away, I expect a result exactly to this standard.
Prediction:
FC Tokyo @ 1.86
