J1 Form Table (Last 5) 2026

Who's hot, who's cold. The J1 2026 form table ranks clubs by their last 5 league matches in points-per-game — the momentum view that the cumulative standings can't show. Updated daily.

Key takeaways

  • Form rates each team's last 5 league matches as points-per-game (W=3, P=1.5, L=0 — P represents an average PK-shootout result) so short runs don't punish teams that have played one extra game. The 2026 Centenary League has no draws — 90-min ties go to PK shootouts (PKW=2, PKL=1); since the form string doesn't carry that split, P is valued at the average 1.5. It's a momentum measure — read it alongside the full standings.
  • Current form leader: サンフレッチェ広島 — 13.5 pts over 5 games (PPG 2.70).
  • 柏レイソル is climbing hard: overall 18 but form 3.
  • 京都サンガ has stalled — 3 pts in 5 recent games.
2026 is the transitional MEIJI YASUDA J.LEAGUE 100 Year Vision League — clubs are split into East and West conferences. Each region plays a double round-robin within the group, with playoffs on May 30–31 and June 6–7, 2026 to decide the final standings.

J1 Form Table FAQ

What does "form" actually measure here?

It's the points-per-game a team has earned across its last 5 league matches (W = 3, P = 1.5, L = 0). The 2026 Centenary League has no draws — when 90 minutes ends level, the match is decided on penalties (PKW = 2 points, PKL = 1). The form string doesn't preserve which side won the shootout, so P is scored at the average of 1.5. PPG (rather than raw totals) keeps the ranking fair across teams that have played uneven numbers of games so far.

How is this different from the standings?

The standings reflect the whole season and drive the actual title / relegation race. The form table only looks at the last 5 matches — it catches teams that are peaking into the next weekend or falling off.

How often is this updated?

Every night, right after the daily fixture pipeline finishes. The form column moves within ~24 hours of a new result.
