Kashiwa Reysol and Urawa Reds meet often enough that they should know each other's game well, but this time Kashiwa are back at home in a different state than before. They lost at home to Urawa 0-1 in the most recent meeting back in May, and before that drew 1-1 at Urawa's ground with form that was still unsettled. Kashiwa have played 12 matches, won 8, drawn 1, lost 3, scored 25 and conceded 19. They are a team whose attack works well, but their defence still has gaps to be exploited. Urawa have also played 12 matches, won 7, drawn 0, lost 5, scored 21 and conceded 23. The numbers say they have never finished a league game with a draw, and their defence leaks just as much. This game should be open and end-to-end from the start, because both teams tend to concede late in games about as much as they score. Kashiwa are likely to have more of the ball and push forward more, while Urawa will likely wait for the counter and use their speed in transition.
