Yet another engaging game in the J3-League. Gifu is in the 14th position from completing two matches. They receive Kagoshima United who are placed 6th from two fixtures.

It's quite the trip for Kagoshima United when visiting Gifu as the cities are 1000 kilometers apart.

Both participants have had enough days rest since their previous exertion in an official match. Let's hope for an animated fixture!
