Competition: Japan J3-League

Match begins: 09:00 (UTC)
Venue: Kitakyushu Stadium (15000 seats)

3rd position in the J3-League table for Giravanz Kitakyushu so far, a good performance. The home supporters hope for more joy as 12th-placed Fukushima United visits Kitakyushu Stadium.

It's no vacation for neither Giravanz Kitakyushu nor Fukushima United as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Fukushima United have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1300 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
