FC Tokyo's record in their last six matches in Japan is two wins and two losses, and their form is a bit fluctuating. The reason for this is that a number of players have been absent due to being called up to the Japanese national team at various levels, which has affected the overall performance of the team. At the same time, the team has failed to achieve the ideal balance between offense and defense.
The key to today's battle will be FC Tokyo's ability to effectively contain their opponents in front of the field and implement high-intensity pressing tactics. Jusei Matsuki, a modern midfielder, has both offensive and defensive qualities, and has the strength to fight for scores from favorable positions, and is undoubtedly a potential killer in the team's offensive end.
Iwata Yamaha lost 0:2 to Hiroshima on the road in a pre-international league match, and have only won once in their last seven league matches. Despite having a few good strikers, the team seems to lack a player who can break through the opponent's defense on his own, which is the main reason why they have been struggling to win recently.
With his great individual skills and sharp alertness, Daiki Yamada is able to support his teammates' offense in time to seize the advantage in the team's backfield holes. However, against the individual ability and teamwork of FC Tokyo's players, I predict FC Tokyo will win at home against Iwata Yamaha.
