It's game two of the J3-League season and everything to play for. Read our full preview of Gainare Tottori-Gifu!
Gainare Tottori and Gifu should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Gainare Tottori form and stats
Gainare Tottori enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Cerezo Osaka U23's place. The match ended 1-0 with Y. Taguchi scoring. Ahead of that match, Gainare lost 0-3 at home to YSCC.
World class coaching! That was the thoughts of R. Takagi when Y. Taguchi scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 64th minute.
