Fukushima United desperately need points on Sunday, May 23 at 12:00 PM in the J3 League. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Matsumoto Yamaga come into this fixture drawing too many games (4D in last 5). Fukushima United are struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5), making this a relatively even contest on current form.

In 10 previous meetings, Matsumoto Yamaga lead 2–4 with 4 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 3–3 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.2 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Matsumoto Yamaga a slight edge, but Fukushima United are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
