JEF United and Yokohama F. Marinos have met often recently, and the home side has never managed a win in the last six meetings. Most recently, back in April, JEF United lost at home 2-3, and their defence is the reason these results keep repeating. JEF United are still in a spell where they cannot find a win, especially in the league, where over the past 9 matches they have picked up just 5 points, scoring 8 and conceding 19 - numbers that say the defence is a problem. Yokohama F. Marinos, meanwhile, arrive in clearly better form, having won 4 of their last 5 in all competitions and not losing any of them. Their attack scores steadily, while their defence does not concede much. If JEF United keep sitting deep and waiting to counter as before, the game is likely to play out with Yokohama F. Marinos having more of the ball and probing for openings. But JEF United have a home record where the first half often produces goals, and if they fall behind early the game opens up immediately - a situation the home side must be wary of, because Yokohama F. Marinos tend to pounce on mistakes and close the game out.
