Play out the season yourself

Simulate every round of the J1 League match by match, with line-ups and goalscorers.

1
Every finished match this season rates each club's attack and defence, at home and away, against the league average.
2
Each remaining match is then played 10,000 times, with goals drawn from those ratings and added to the current table.
3
The percentages show how often a club finished in that place across all the simulations.
