National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Yokohama F. Marinos or Machida Zelvia that keep their silverware dream alive.

It's no vacation for neither Yokohama F. Marinos nor Machida Zelvia as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Yokohama F. Marinos form and stats

Yokohama F. Marinos have reached this Emperor Cup stage through battling and winning against Urayasu. Yokohama F. Marinos participated in Emperor Cup the last season, where they reached the 3rd round.

Yokohama F. Marinos have been very solid at home in the J-League so far, with 23 points collected from 9 matches (7-2-0). This has contributed greatly to their 1st position in the table.

Yokohama travelled for their previous game, a trip to Nagoya Grampus that ended 2-2. Midfielder Élber was the best player on the team with a rating of 8.32 (out of ten) in that game. Élber scored one goal, hit the woodwork once, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 6 of 6 times.

Previous to that game, a J-League home match hosting Shonan Bellmare in a game that was won 4-1.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Yokohama F. Marinos, as the J-League home game vs Kawasaki Frontale is only three days away.

Goals are plentiful at Machida Gion Stadium in the league this season as Yokohama F. Marinos has scored 25 goals here in 9 home games. From these home matches, Yokohama have conceded only 8 goals.

Machida Zelvia form and stats

The traveling awayteam has defeated Zweigen Kanazawa in order to reach 3rd round of Emperor Cup. Last season their Emperor Cup adventure ended in the 2nd round.

Machida Zelvia's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Machida Zelvia collect 24 points from their 12 away matches in the J2-League. 7 victories and 3 draws have created these points (and only 2 defeats).

Machida Zelvia delivered a 2-2 draw playing at home against Tokyo Verdy in their previous match. Drawing 2-2 against Tokyo Verdy after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager Kuroda needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result.

Preceding that game was the away J2-League victory against Oita Trinita with the score of 3-0.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The J2-League trip to Blaublitz Akita.

Machida Zelvia are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 17 away goals from 12 games (in the league). It's not easy to score on Machida as they have only conceded 7 goals from these away games.
