Kashiwa Reysol vs Sanfrecce Hiroshima Prediction: An open match for both sides

When the two clubs play at Sankyo Frontier Stadium, they hope to extend their league's performances with a win. Home team Reysol will continue their pressure on league leaders who have failed to win the last three matches in all competitions, as it is still possible to win the league. At the same time, Hiroshima is focused on making the top 4 with 4 points between these two sides.

Kashiwa Reysol has been on a decent performance with previous league match results. In the J1 League, Kashiwa Reysol beat Kyoto Sanga 1-2, and they will now try to do well again. In that game, Kashiwa Reysol had 45% of the ball and 15 shots, 3 of which were on goal. Yuki Muto scored the team's only goal in the 98th minute. On the other hand, Kyoto Sanga had 12 shots, but only 3 hit the target. Shohei Takeda scored for Kyoto Sanga in the seventh minute, and Yuki Honda scored an own goal in the 25th minute. Their recent performance shows that the Kashiwa Reysol defense has always been great. Only four goals have been scored against Kashiwa Reysol in their last six games. However, things seem to be complicated in this match as they will be playing a tough Hiroshima.

Sanfrecce Hiroshima will go into the match confidently because, in their last game, they beat league leaders Yokohama F. Marinos 1-2 in the J. League Cup. Nassim Ben Khalifa scored for Sanfrecce Hiroshima in the eighth minute, and Yuki Nogami scored 37 minutes later. Léo Ceará scored for Yokohama F. Marinos in the 22nd minute. Before this game, Sanfrecce Hiroshima's offense was on fire. In their last six games, they scored ten goals. But Sanfrecce Hiroshima's defense has been a little weak, letting in goals in 5 of those matches. Still, it's unclear if that will happen again in this upcoming game. In road league games, Sanfrecce Hiroshima has never lost to Kashiwa Reysol. Also, they have not lost in the league in their last two away games.

As of October 6, 2018, Kashiwa Reysol has won three head-to-head games against Sanfrecce Hiroshima, while Sanfrecce Hiroshima has won two, and one game was a tie.
