4th spot in the J-League table for Cerezo Osaka so far this season, a strong performance. The home team fans hope for more joy as 9th-placed Nagoya Grampus visit.

Insights:
  • Cerezo Osaka have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Nagoya Grampus have the fewest scored goals in the second half (11) in J-League

For Grampus most of the excitement is over as they will neither be promoted or relegated this season.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
