Proud fans of the Kashima Antlers would flock to the Edion Peace Wing as Kashima Antlers set the tone for toxicity against Sanfrecce. While this may look to be a walk in the park for the guests, the hosts have been rumored to handicap (overconfident) the opposition’s expectations with several tricks up their sleeves.

Last Meeting: SanFrecce Hiroshima 2 - 2 Kashima Antlers

Sanfrecce Hiroshima (7th)

Last Five Matches: W-D-W-D-L

Hiroshima has only lost one in the last seven league games, and as such, is a formidable opponent for the guests who seem to be in a purple patch and in great form. They have been solid at home to produce two wins and a stalemate in the last three exhibitions.

Hiroshima stands strong with six goals from six games and a surplus of two goals from a concession of four.

Kashima Antlers (1st)

Last Five Matches: W-W-W-D-W

Kashima approaches the game with a running six-game unbeaten streak; popping from nowhere since they lost their first season game. Although they have been thoroughly established as one of the best teams, this game against Sanfrecce would prove to be a solid test of mettle; and while the team looks to cement their stay in the lead, they have also not lacked in the goal-scoring department, with thirteen goals in seven games.

My tips would be promulgated from the goals scoring abilities of either side and the relentlessness in attack.
