The J3-League league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. These two teams are placed 6th and 13th respectively.
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.
