Ryūkyū might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Tegevajaro Miyazaki proved too strong as Ryūkyū slumped to a 0-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Sportplatz SV Brixen im Thale (Hof).

Preceding that, 2-2 away against Roasso Kumamoto (after extra-time, 5-4 on penalties) in the Emperor Cup. As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite.
