Notes on Vissel's 2-1
home defeat to Gamba are in the preview above. They conceded for the
eighth straight home game and it is close to impossible to see them
keeping a clean sheet versus a Sanfrecce Hiroshima offense which is on
fire right now, ahead of their last away start, a 2-1 win at Stage 1
champions Urawa, I wrote .....
"I like the odds about
Sanfrecce Hiroshima today, if you take a quick look at the format, it is
easy to make a case for them being the more motivated of the two given
that they still have to qualify for post season play and have made no
secret of the fact that they have eyes on a title this season .....After
consecutive J-League titles they came up short last year, claiming to
have been exhausted by the schedule, with two demanding Champions League
campaigns, no such worries this year and they are very committed to
another domestic title. They have shared the goals around this season,
but the two main front men, Douglas and Sato both scored in midweek and
look to be developing a potent understanding, Sato is a veteran now ,
but has been one of the most prolific J-L strikers for more than a
decade and like most front men, tends to be very streaky and one goal
usually follows another.
The front pair claimed 13 goals in stage
1 and incredibly, already have three between them in the two games
since the restart , I only say "incredibly" as Sanfrecce nothched six in
midweek without a contribution from Sato, he was taken off after little
more than 50 minutes with today in mind and Douglas shortly afterwards
and they should be fit and raring to go today.The pair will be boosted
by the news that Urawa's vastly experienced central defender Daisuke
Nasu is suspended, he has missed just one game this season in which Reds
conceded three goals ( just 0.83 goals per game in the other 18 starts)
and they have won just once in the five games he has sat out in the
last three seasons. Last three h2h matches have been drawn and one goal
today should be enough to secure at least a share of the points for the
visitors and Urawa are less well equipped than usual to stop them
scoring it."
They followed that up with another three points
on Saturday and could largely switch off after the second goal, their
26th in just eight outings, at least two in each and with Kobe happier
on the road, missing suspended left back Takahito Soma ( two defeats in
13 when he plays, 5 in 8 in his absence) and with a poor h2h record, I
favour the visitors to claim the three points which will ensure they
stay top of the overall championship for another week, having taken
first place at the weekend.
