Goal Statistics

Gamba Osaka's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday morning, not least because Albirex Niigata have conceded in each of their last 9 J-League matches. A PG of 1.7 for Daniel Poyatos Algaba's side suggests that run should continue.

An absolutely awful PG of just 0.9 should cause concerns for Albirex Niigata fans, as should a 8 J-League matches run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
