This could be an interesting match as Oita Trinita have their presumed home advantage while Kawasaki Frontale are ahead 39 points in the J-League table.
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the J-League.
It's quite the trip for Kawasaki Frontale when visiting Oita Trinita as the cities are 900 kilometers apart.
