JSoccer Magazine J1 Preview Sept.22nd, Matchday 26 – 19:00 Sagan Tosu vs Kashiwa Reysol at Best Amenity Stadium

Sagan Tosu – FW Toyoda is a doubt, undergoing tests.
Kashiwa Reysol reporting no injuries except THREE goalkeepers! But top keeper is available!

2 wins each and 3 draws – all in J2 until this year’s 1-1 draw in J1, since Sagan entered the League in 2006.

Last year’s promoted team – Reysol – went on to win the title, to the surprise of everyone, including their own fans – probably! Anyone who admitted that they thought that Sagan Tosu were this year’s surprise promoted team was probably laughed out of town at the start of the season, but the J1 first-timers have more than held their own and now, despite having won only two of their last five, find themselves still in 7th and challenging for a spot in the ACL 2013. With the best defence in J1, Sagan Tosu continue to surprise us all and they know that a win here would take them above Reysol, maybe even into 4th spot with other results going their way. They may well be missing ace striker Toyoda, who would be a big loss, and Reysol appear to be at full strength so the game could go either way.

With the likes of Leandro Domingues, Kudo, Sawa and Jorge Wagner on form, the Reysol attack is a force to be reckoned with. A rampant attack up against a formidable defence? Something’s gotta give! I think it will be the Sagan defence this time and Reysol will roll out the goals.

EXPECT a WIN for KASHIWA REYSOL!
