Iwaki FC desperately need points on Saturday, May 15 at 12:00 PM in the J2 League. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Iwaki FC come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 4L in last 5). Omiya Ardija, meanwhile, arrive drawing too many games (3D in last 5) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Verdict: Omiya Ardija's quality should tell even on the road. Iwaki FC will push, but the visitors have too much class. Omiya Ardija to win.
