Catching up with the top clubs is the mission when these two mid-table clubs meet. Both will be aiming to better their league position, Matsue City in 10th and Biwako Shiga in 11th spot.
- Matsue City haven’t played a single 0-0 game.
- Biwako Shiga have conceded at least twice as many corners as they have won.
