Team News: Oita Trinita
Availability isn’t a big problem, with just the sole fitness concern for the Oita Trinita boss Tomohiro Katanosaka to be concerned about from a near full-strength squad. Kohei Isa (Cartilage damage) won’t play.
ℹ️
Team News: Sagan Tosu
Sagan Tosu manager Akio Kogiku has not got a full squad to pick from. Fuchi Honda (Tear of the lateral meniscus), Toshiki Ando (Metatarsal fracture) and Cristiano (Cruciate ligament injury) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.
🔮
Prediction
We believe that Sagan Tosu will have to work hard as a team to breach the defence of this Oita Trinita outfit who will likely emerge victorious.
We’re therefore anticipating a 1-0 advantage for Oita Trinita when all is said and done.
A close call.
