Cerezo Osaka hosts Consadole Sapporo in round 15 of the Japanese J1 League. The match will be played on Wednesday, September 9th at Yanmar Stadium Nagai (Osaka)
There is another change of leader in the Japanese business center. Mediocre Cerezo surpasses the newly awarded Gamba. Unlike many flagships, Cerezo Osaka plays strictly defensive football. Such rationalism allows this team to stay in second place in the standings. It is especially powerful in the local arena, where the rivals managed to score only three times. This is the best result of the championship. Only Nagoya managed to leave Yanmar Stadium Nagai as the winner.

Sapporo made a powerful start spurt, but then the team underwent a decline, which continues to this day. A series of defeats seriously lowered the team, but the bookmakers continue to believe in it. The representatives of the Olympic city are in the 12th place before this meeting, having a passive streak of four away matches without victories. Home games also began to end with bad results. Many experts predict changes on Consadole’s coaching bridge. In the last round, nothing was opposed to the defensive tactics of Hiroshima (0:2).
I vaguely believe in the chances of the visitors. The team from Osaka shows a competent game at home and confidently earns points in a deliberate style. Sapporo could not stand the fight on two fronts, and now many experts predict it a place in the lower part of the standings. Sapporo has often scored in Osaka in the past years, but I think the upcoming round will change these statistics. At this juncture, the hosts will at least not lose, which allows us to bet on their victory with a zero handicap. By the way, the visitors conceded in three away meetings in a row!
Prediction for the match: C-Osaka to win with 0.0 handicap
