This midweek, the fire of Japan Professional League is reignited as Kawasaki Frontale hosts Kokusaika Katsushika. Although Kawasaki Frontale are currently the underdogs in the table, they have shown strong resistance with one win and five draws in the last six rounds of the league, so it is not easy to beat them. With Kawasaki in the doldrums, having failed to score in two consecutive matches, it seems more likely that Kawasaki Frontale will be favored to win the match with a handicap of (-0.5).
However, Kawasaki Striker's performance in recent years is really not optimistic, and this season's performance is even more obvious decline, with only one win in two league games, losing a lot of points. But as the saying goes, even a broken ship has three pounds of nails. Despite their low win percentage, they are undefeated in the last six rounds of league matches, including home matches against Sanfrecce Hiroshima and Sakura Osaka, which undoubtedly boosts their confidence when playing at home.
Meanwhile, although Kobe Victory ship is fourth in the table, their actual form is not good. In the past ten rounds of league matches, they only won three matches and lost four. In the last round, they drew 3-3 with Nagoya Whale at home, with a porous defense. Moreover, in the last five rounds of away matches, they only won one game, so it seems that they don't have enough strength to fight against Kawasaki Frontale, who is expected to sit firmly and fight for the victory.
