Matchday 5 in the J1 League kicks off with Cerezo Osaka taking on Kashiwa Reysol at Yodoko Sakura Stadium on Wednesday. This exact fixture ended 1-1 last season, and our prediction is that both teams will get on the scoresheet here.
Cerezo Osaka have made a mixed start to the 2026-27 season, splitting their first four games, two wins and two losses, which sees them enter MD5 with six points and in 10th place in the standings.
Sakura suffered a 1-0 loss to Vissel Kobe on Saturday afternoon and have now scored just three goals this season, one fewer than the first side below the dotted line, V-Varen Nagasaki.
However, the hosts’ two wins this season came on their home patch, and they have not lost a league game here since the middle of March against Okayama.
Meanwhile, Kashiwa Reysol have stormed out the blocks this season, currently leading the league standings as one of only two teams with a perfect four wins from four matches.
The Sun King edged Shimizu S-Pulse to a 1-0 victory on the road last weekend, marking their first clean sheet of the campaign. They have scored the third-most goals in the division to date (10).
While the visitors have won their last four away league games either side of the summer break, they have not tasted victory at Sakura Stadium in the top flight since April 2022.

Our Cerezo Osaka vs Kashiwa Reysol Prediction
While Cerezo Osaka have experienced a mixed start to their season, they have won both their home games to date and have not tasted defeat in a J1 League match at Sakura Stadium since March.
However, if there is one side that may be able to get three points here, it is Kashiwa Reysol, who have won all four of their games this season. The outright win market feels a little too risky in this one, but we fancy both sides to get on the scoresheet. Our Cerezo Osaka vs Kashiwa Reysol prediction is BTTS.
