Consadole Sapporo come into this fixture in red-hot form (4W from last 5). Albirex Niigata travel in mixed form (2W 1D 2L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts. Consadole Sapporo won their last outing, while Albirex Niigata suffered defeat — home advantage backed by momentum.
Despite playing at home, Consadole Sapporo face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Albirex Niigata have won 6 of 10 encounters, with 4 draws. Their last encounter ended in Consadole Sapporo won 1–2.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Consadole Sapporo a slight edge, but Albirex Niigata are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
