2nd position in the J2-League table for Omiya Ardija so far, a good performance. The home supporters hope for more joy as 9th-placed Matsumoto Yamaga visits NACK5 Stadium Ōmiya.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
