Fagiano Okayama are doing great in the Japanese topflight for a promoted team. They sit 10th in the league standings, five places behind their visitors, Sanfrecce Hiroshima. Below is our prediction for this match.

Among the promoted teams, Okayama are the best performing. Their 2-1 win at Kashima Antlers lifted them to 30 points, 10 off the Champions League places.

Fagi have now posted eight wins, equaling their tally of defeats, and will be looking to go one better. They did win 1-0 on their trip to Hiroshima in April and are gunning for a double.

This could be tough, as Okayama have suffered three defeats in the last five home games.

Sanfrecce Hiroshima haven't had much going their way and will be keen on bouncing back here. Their last two matches ended in defeat, bringing their losing tally to eight matches for the season.

In their most recent outing, they lost 1-0 to Vissel Kobe courtesy of Erik’s 68th-minute strike. It was another close game, coming right after a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Nagoya Grampus.

This streak might point to a poor run, but in their last 10 league matches, the visitors posted six victories. Away from home, they have four wins in their last six league outings.
