📰 Team News: Gamba Osaka
Takashi Usami (Achilles tendon rupture), Masaaki Higashiguchi (Meniscal Injury) and Shu Kurata (Calf Strain) are not available for Gamba Osaka manager Tomohiro Katanosaka.
We are thinking that Gamba Osaka look set to go for a 4-4-2 system for this game, beginning the first half with Jun Ichimori, Ko Yanagisawa, Gen Shoji, Kyung-Won Kwon, Keisuke Kurokawa, Kosuke Onose, Kohei Okuno, Dawhan, Yuya Fukuda, Jiro Nakamura and Patric.
📋 Team News: Vissel Kobe
Vissel Kobe boss Miguel Lotina has some current player fitness concerns. Andrés Iniesta (Unknown Injury), Daiju Sasaki (Hamstring Injury), Noriaki Fujimoto (torn tendon) and Sergi Samper (Cruciate Ligament Injury) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.
We believe Ushi could decide to utilise a 4-2-1-3 formation by sending out Daiya Maekawa, Gotoku Sakai, Ryuho Kikuchi, Leo Osaki, Ryo Hatsuse, Shion Inoue, Hotaru Yamaguchi, Takahiro Ogihara, Yoshinori Muto, Yuya Osako and Koya Yuruki.
🧠 Prediction
We feel that Vissel Kobe and Gamba Osaka should both get enough opportunities to score, although it’s hard to separate the two.
A draw is a real possibility, as we are expecting there to be little between them. We’re therefore seeing a very close game with a 1-1 scoreline when all is said and done.
Our expert partners are tipping under 3.5 goals for this match. Check out their VIP predictions here.
