6686 Sports News on October 25th In the 35th round of the Japanese Professional League, the Kashiwa Reysol home team faced Yokohama FC.

Kashiwa Reysol has performed very well this season. Not only has it reached the finals of the Japan League Cup, it is also currently ranked second in the league, and it is still possible to compete for the championship. Currently, in the Japan Professional League standings, Kashiwa Reysol has 63 points, 3 points behind the leader Kashima Antlers, and there is still a chance to compete for the championship.

The recent competitive state of Kashiwa Reysol is also very good. The team has achieved 4 wins and 4 draws in the past 8 league matches and remains unbeaten. The last time the team lost in a league match was two months ago. In the last round of the league match, the team even swept Gamba Osaka 5-0 in the away game. The team's morale is currently very high.

It is worth mentioning that Kashiwa Reysol’s home team record is very scary. The team has achieved 9 wins and 3 draws in nearly 12 home games in all competitions and remains unbeaten. The home team’s scoring efficiency is very high.

In terms of personnel, four injured players, including Kazuki Kumazawa, Mitsuki Kumasaka, Kohei Tezuka, and Riki Watai, will continue to be absent from this game. It is expected that Kashiwa Reysol will also use the lineup against Gamba Osaka last week for this game.

Yokohama FC has performed averagely this season. It currently ranks 18th in the Japanese Professional League with 32 points after 34 rounds, 2 points behind Yokohama Marinos. The relegation situation is very serious.

Recently, Yokohama FC's competitive state has also been very sluggish. In the past four games, the team has only achieved 1 draw and 3 losses. It is hard to win, and the relegation situation has also taken a turn for the worse. Fortunately, in the last round of the league match against the Nagoya Whales, the team relied on Shinto Ito's stoppage time draw and managed to score 1 point, stopping their three-game losing streak.

It is worth mentioning that Yokohama FC’s away performance is very poor. In the past six away games, the team has only achieved 2 draws and 4 losses. A win is hard to come by. The team’s efficiency in scoring points in away games is very low.

In terms of personnel, Yokohama FC core defender Nduka will not be able to play in this game due to accumulated warning card suspensions. In addition, Bahia and Miyata Kazumi will also be absent due to injuries.

The two teams met in the past 10 times, Kashiwa Reysol has 3 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses, which is not the upper hand. However, judging from the recent competitive status of the two teams, Kashiwa Reysol is obviously much better than Yokohama FC, and is very likely to win a three-pointer at the home team in this campaign.
