ℹ️ Team News: Kashima Antlers
Shintaro Nago (Peroneus tendon injury) and Ryotaro Araki (Herniated Disc) will not be able to play for Kashima Antlers boss René Weiler. Yuma Suzuki will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.
It looks as if Kashima Antlers may well use the 4-4-2 system in the match, handing starts to Sun-Tae Kwon, Keigo Tsunemoto, Ikuma Sekigawa, Kento Misao, Koki Anzai, Hayato Nakama, Yuta Higuchi, Diego Pituca, Arthur Caike, Ayase Ueda and Ryuji Izumi.
🗞️ Team News: Kyoto Sanga
Thanks to a largely healthy group of players, there is just the sole fitness worry for the Kyoto Sanga manager Kwi-Jae Cho to contend with. Naoto Misawa (Achilles tendon rupture) won’t be in action. Hisashi Appiah Tawiah is ineligible for this match because of suspension.
We believe Kyoto Sanga will likely utilise a 4-1-2-3 lineup, giving starts to Naoto Kamifukumoto, Takahiro Iida, Kazuma Nagai, Shogo Asada, Takuya Ogiwara, Rikito Inoue, Daiki Kaneko, Sota Kawasaki, Yuta Toyokawa, Peter Utaka and Daigo Araki.
🧠 Prediction
We envisage that Kashima Antlers will likely fashion enough chances to find the net more than once while possibly not conceding when they face Kyoto Sanga, who could well struggle to find the back of the net.
We reckon that it will be a comfortable 2-0 victory for Kashima Antlers come full-time.
