A home victory is expected from this game if the league standings is anything to judge by. The Nara Club supporters are hopeful that the gap between 5th and Sony Sendai's 14th position in the table will be visible on the playing field.

These teams have little in common geographically as Sony Sendai have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
