In my opinion Chiba have really good chances to make at least one point in today's match up.

Chiba have solid record in away matches against Kofu as they didn't lost in 4 of 5 matches at this stadium.

Kofu at the moment is completely out of form. After 5 consecutive matches without a win in league, 10 days ago they recorded comfortable win in Emperor's Cup against team from lower league, but that looked only good on the paper. 6 days ago Kofu played league match on away against poor Morioka and lost 0:1. For sure that have bad impact on morale in team because momentum gained in cup already gone.

Chiba is in different mood. They went unbeaten in last 4 consecutive league matches (3 wins in a row). Team coming for this game full of confidence because in last round they recorded big win 2:0 against one of the strongest team in whole league (Vegalta). Buwanika and Miki scored goals in that game - for second match in a row this duo scored, they are in great form, same as Leaco. Chiba squad looks good in terms of quality and they have ambitions to play in promotion playoffs. Now they are just one spot behind that place. Motivation to win today should be on the highest possible level.

Chiba is in better form, have better squad and coming with much bigger confidence and motivation. They also not losing too often at this stadium. I don't see them as a underdog here.

在我看来，千叶有很好的机会在今天的比赛中至少取得一分。

千叶在客场对阵甲府的比赛中保持着稳定的战绩，因为他们在这个体育场的5场比赛中没有输掉4场。

此刻的甲府已经完全走样了。在连续5场联赛未尝一胜后，10天前他们在皇帝杯上轻松战胜了低级别联赛的球队，但这只是表面上看起来不错。

6天前甲府联赛客场对阵可怜的盛冈，0:1落败。肯定会对团队士气产生不良影响，因为在杯赛中获得的动力已经消失。

千叶的情况不一样。他们在最近4场联赛中保持不败（3连胜）。本场比赛的球队充满信心，因为在上一轮他们以2:0大胜最强球队之一（维加塔）。

Buwanika 和 Miki 在那场比赛中进球——这对二人组连续第二场比赛进球，他们的状态很好，和 Leaco 一样。千叶球队在质量方面看起来不错，他们有野心参加晋级季后赛。现在他们只落后那个地方一个位置。今天获胜的动机应该是尽可能高的水平。

千叶的状态更好，阵容也更好，信心和动力也更大。他们在这个体育场很少输球。我不认为他们在本场是弱者。

-----------

In my opinion Oita have really good chances to make at least one point in today's match up.

Of course, Albirex so far played much better season than Oita, but still I don't see them as stronger team. Season is long and I believe Oita is still able to finish above Albirex in league table. Albirex is leader at the moment, but they don't have enough quality to win this league - in last 3 consecutive seasons they were not able to finish inside top5. On the other hand Oita in previous season played in J1 and they wants to back there soon as possible and they have enough quality in squad to achieve that goal.

Oita had really bad period in May, but for me that wasn't big surprise because they had extremely hard, fully packed schedule - between 4th-25th of May they played 6 matches! They failed to win any of those matches, but flashes of high quality were visible - for example in Cup game at home against strong J1 team Cerezo Osaka (3:3). Fortunately, crazy schedule gone and Oita bounce back on good track. They went unbeaten in last 4 matches in all competitions (3 wins in a row) and they wants to go with momentum today.

Albirex lost badly 1:4 at home against Kumamoto in Cup. In last league match they failed to win on away against Tokushima. For sure they not coming for this game full of confidence. In addition to that Albirex is poor team on away - they failed to win in 8 of 10 away matches so far and I don't see them as a favorite against Oita.

在我看来，大分有很好的机会在今天的比赛中至少拿到一分。

当然，到目前为止，新泻天鹅的表现比大分好得多，但我仍然不认为他们是一支更强大的球队。赛季很长，我相信大分仍然能够在积分榜上超越新泻天鹅。

新泻天鹅目前是领头羊，但他们没有足够的实力赢得这场比赛——过去连续3个赛季他们都未能进入前五。另一方面，大分上赛季曾是日职的球队，他们希望尽快回到那里，并且他们有足够的阵容来实现这个目标。

大分 5 月的这段时间真的很糟糕，但对我来说这并不奇怪，因为他们的赛程非常艰苦，排得满满的——在 5 月 4 日至 25 日期间，他们打了 6 场比赛！他们未能赢得任何一场比赛，但可以看到实力的体系——例如在主场对阵强大的 J1 队大阪塞雷佐 (​​3:3) 的杯赛中。幸运的是，紧密的日程安排消失了，大分恢复了重回正轨。他们在所有比赛的最后 4 场比赛中保持不败（连续 3 场胜利），他们希望在今天保持势头。

新泻天鹅在杯赛中主场1:4惨败熊本。上一场联赛客场对阵德岛，他们未能取胜。可以肯定的是，他们不会为这场充满信心的比赛而来。此外，新泻天鹅的客场表现不佳——到目前为止，他们在 10 场客场比赛中有 8 场未能取胜，我不认为他们是对阵大分的热门球队。
