Yet another interesting game in the J3-League. Azul Claro Numazu is in the 11th spot after playing two fixtures. They host Vanraure Hachinohe who are placed 15th after two games.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
