¿Cómo llegan ambos equipos?
Gamba Osaka head into this game buoyed by strong home performances under Coach Dani Poyatos. Their recent cup success has injected confidence, and they look well organized at the back while posing a threat on the counter.
FC Tokyo, meanwhile, have struggled on the road and are without a win in four of their last five away matches. Their defence has leaked goals in each of those fixtures, raising concerns ahead of a tough trip to Suita.
Nuestras previsiones
We expect Gamba Osaka to control large spells of possession and create the clear-cut chances in front of their home crowd. Their recent scoring form suggests they’ll find the net, while FC Tokyo may be stretched at the back.
Despite Tokyo’s resilience going forward, the hosts should edge this one. A 2-1 victory for Gamba Osaka seems the most likely outcome, with both teams potentially getting on the scoresheet.
