🗞️ Team News: Giravanz Kitakyushu
The Giravanz Kitakyushu boss doesn’t have any fitness worries to speak of coming into this clash thanks to a fully injury-free group ready to go.
📋 Team News: Yokohama FC
Yokohama FC manager Shuhei Yomoda has a number of players out of action. Tsubasa Shibuya (Acromioclavicular joint dislocation), João Paulo (Tibia and fibula fracture) and Kaito Mori (Broken collarbone) won’t be making appearances.
🔮 Prediction
We’re of the opinion that Giravanz Kitakyushu certainly have the ability to breach the defence of this Yokohama FC lineup, but one goal likely won’t be enough.
We’re therefore tipping a very close game with a 1-2 winning score for Yokohama FC by the conclusion of the game. It’s a very tough call.
