Kyoto Sanga will look to strengthen their place at the J1-League summit when they travel to Sanfrecce Hiroshima in matchday 29 action. Heading into this game, Kyoto are a point ahead of the chasing pack, while Sanfrecce are sixth, four points behind the leaders. Let’s have a look at the match prediction.
It is a tight race, and a win here could see Sanfrecce rise as high as third. Their recent run in the league has been erratic, though, and that is among the factors making them come here as underdogs.
They have two wins in the last five league matches, but it has been even tougher at home. Their latest home outing ended in a 1-0 loss to Vissel Kobe, a third defeat in five home league games.
On the other hand, Kyoto have entered the fourth month without tasting defeat in the league. The visitors auditioned for this match with a 5-0 win at home against Fagiano, their fourth straight league win and third consecutive clean sheet.
Here they will be eyeing a 10th unbeaten outing, having won seven of their latest nine league matches. It hasn’t been as comfortable away from home, but they have scored at least twice in the last four league games.
In their last two matches against Sanfrecce, Kyoto are unbeaten.
