Sagan Tosu vs Kashiwa Reysol Prediction

Sagan Tosu will definitely walk in as the favorities given their history in the fixture.

Nonetheless, the visitors will be greatly relieved after their win over Nagoya in midweek, which not only snapped their losing streak but also allowed them to catapult Sagan to sixth in the table. They will be looking to build on that win and once again put themselves in contention for a place in Asia's premier competition next year.

The hosts will be eying a much-needed win after their midweek fixture was postponed and will be confident of taking all three points.

We expect Sagan Tosu to clinch the victory.

Prediction: Sagan Tosu 3-1 Kashiwa Reysol
