Kashima Antlers duel Avispa Fukuoka for acclaim and sporting success.

Avispa Fukuoka have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1100 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Kashima Antlers and Avispa Fukuoka.
