Yokohama
The Marinos didn't play a cup game and prepared for the championship encounter in an orderly fashion. It was important for Yokohama, because in the previous round they had lost on the road against Cerezo Osaka (2:2).The Marinos managed a magnificent comeback in that game, though, as they went 0:2 from the 84th minute onwards.
Yokohama is leading the league table by five points. They have 44 points after 21 games and a goal difference of 46:23.
Expert Betting Tips
Yokohama has lost only 3 matches in the current championship and has excellent meeting statistics against Sagan Tosu. Although Sagan has lost only 5 matches out of 20 in this championship. So, the Marinos will have a tough time on the road. But they are likely to win anyway, because Tosu played their Cup game in the middle of the week and will simply be less physically prepared than their opponent.
