It has been a rare occasion in recent times that Kashiwa Reysol haven’t conceded.

🗞️ Team News: Kashiwa Reysol

The Kashiwa Reysol manager Nélsinho Baptista has zero fitness worries at all coming into this game owing to a fully injury-free group to choose from.

📰 Team News: Kyoto Sanga

Thanks to a largely healthy squad, there is only a single fitness worry for the Kyoto Sanga boss Kwi-Jae Cho to be concerned about. Naoto Misawa (Achilles tendon rupture) won’t be playing here.

⚡ Prediction

We feel that over the course of the game, Kyoto Sanga will have to work hard as a team to get anything against this Kashiwa Reysol lineup who should do enough to score at the other end and edge ahead.

We’re therefore expecting a hard-fought 1-0 advantage for Kashiwa Reysol at the end of the 90 minutes.
