Yokohama to Win

A solitary strike from Matsuki Kato was enough for Cerezo Osaka to progress in the Emperor's Cup at Sagan Tosu's expense. They now return their attention to the J1 League where they are winless in their last 11 outings. Yokohama FC will fancy their chances against the Sakura and build upon their newfound form. The Fulie are on a four-match unbeaten streak and should be able to take points from this trip.

Total Goals: Over 2.5

Yokohama has averaged 2.8 goals per match for the duration of the current J1 League campaign. While they had stuttered to impress before, their unbeaten run has coincided with the number of goals dropping. All four of their most recent league outings finished with an Under 2.5 goals scoreline. However, Cerezo Osaka has found themselves flush with goals. They have scored 8 goals and conceded 9 in return. Three of their last four meetings finished with at least three goals and it is a trait that we should find in common after they meet with Cerezo Osaka.

Both Teams to Score: Yes

Barring their 0-0 draw with Vegalta Sendai, Cerezo Osaka have hit the back of the net in each of their five league outings prior. Yokohama had found scoring difficult earlier but their resurgence has coincided with them regularly hitting the back of the net. They have scored four goals in their last four outings and should trouble the Sakura backline in this Saturday meeting.

Cerezo Osaka vs Yokohama: Team News and Match Preview

Cerezo Osaka

While Cerezo Osaka continues to progress in cup competitions, Levir Culpi cannnot stop their dismal outings in the J1 League. It is their stretch of accrued stalemates that have hurt their standings on the points table. While they have done enough to come to level terms, they have failed to get over the line. Culpi will fancy his side's chances against Yokohama but will have to be wary of Fulie's newfound belief.

Yokohama FC

Tomonobu Hayakawa has a tough task on his hands to stave off relegation but it seems Yokohama FC can avoid the drop if they continue their form. They have claimed eight points from their last four matches, more than what they had accumulated in the 20 games prior. Yusuke Matsuo was their hero against Nagora Grampus and the manager will want him to lead them to glory again.
