Goal Statistics

Urawa Reds's fans will be hoping for goals on Sunday morning, not least because Albirex Niigata have conceded in each of their last 7 J-League games. A PG of 1.7 for Maciej Skorza's side suggests that run should continue.

An absolutely dismal PG of just 0.8 should cause concerns for Albirex Niigata fans, as should a 6 J-League matches run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
