Kashima Antlers host Shimizu S-Pulse at Kashima Soccer Stadium, Kashima on Friday, Nov 20 at 11:00 AM in the J1 League.
Kashima Antlers come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5). Shimizu S-Pulse, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 2L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.
History strongly favours Kashima Antlers here — they've won 8 of 10 previous meetings against Shimizu S-Pulse, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 1–1 draw.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Kashima Antlers a slight edge, but Shimizu S-Pulse are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
