This season, Nagoya is not playing as well as in the previous ones, and it is unlikely that the team will succeed in reaching any continental competition. The big problem of this team is away games, this season they scored only six goals away from their stadium. But Nagoya is playing much better at its stadium and has suffered only two defeats this season, the last one came in the last round against Shimizu, it was 2-0 for a team that is in the relegation zone. Although that defeat surprised many, Shimizu has been playing well lately and it's not a big surprise for me considering that Nagoya wins a lot more games than they should realistically, and it can be said that they have a lot of luck. Today they will play against the team they beat 1-0 a few months ago, Cerezo Osaka, who has been playing fantastic lately and unlike Nagoya, Osaka scores a lot of goals, but let's be realistic, they also concede a lot. One interesting fact, Cerezo Osaka scored a goal in the last 13 games in a row and the only time they missed was against Nagoya. Things are a little different now and I think Osaka is in much better shape right now. Cerezo Osaka played fantastically against Yokohama Marinos in the last match, it was 2-2 and Yokohama was losing 2-0 until the very end of the match and in the end, somehow managed to get a point. Yokohama is certainly the strongest team in the league right now and they saw in this game that Cerezo Osaka can handle them and therefore every other team in the league. I don't expect an easy game here for guests but I think they have the quality to beat Nagoya and advance to the next stage.

My prediction;

Outcome: Osaka to win

本赛季，名古屋的表现不如前几个赛季，这支球队不太可能成功进入任何大陆赛事。这支球队的大问题是客场比赛，本赛季他们在客场只进了6个球。但名古屋在球场上的表现要好得多，本赛季只输了两场，上一次是在上一轮对阵清水的比赛中，这是一支处于降级区的球队，比分是2比0。虽然那场失利让很多人感到意外，但清水最近踢得很好，这对我来说并不意外，因为名古屋赢了比他们实际应该赢的更多的比赛，可以说他们运气很好。今天他们将对阵几个月前他们1-0击败的球队，大阪塞雷佐，他最近踢得非常出色，不像名古屋，大阪进了很多球，但让我们现实一点，他们也丢了很多球。一个有趣的事实是，大阪塞雷佐在最近13场比赛中连续进球，唯一一次失球是对名古屋的比赛。现在情况有点不同了，我认为大阪现在的状况要好得多。上一场与横滨马里诺斯的比赛中，大阪塞雷佐发挥出色，比分是2比2，横滨在比赛的最后时刻0比2输掉了比赛，最后，不知怎么的，大阪塞雷佐拿到了一分。横滨当然是目前联盟中最强的球队，他们在这场比赛中看到大阪塞雷佐可以对付他们，因此联盟中的其他球队也可以。我不希望客人在这里玩一场简单的游戏，但我认为他们有能力击败名古屋，进入下一阶段。
