In my opinion Tochigi have really good chances to make at least one point in this game.

Tochigi didn’t lost in 3 of last 4 home matches against Tokyo Verdy.

Tochigi is in solid form – they lost 2 of last 5 matches, but in those matches they played against teams from top5. Also in both matches Tochigi played on the road and that is huge difference because they are really hard nut to crack front of home crowd. Hosts won last 3 matches in a row at home – scored 7 goals and conceded only one during that run. Today Tochigi will play with the strongest possible line up and I expect another high quality performance.

On the other hand Tokyo Verdy have serious squad problems because today they will play without 3 key midfielders: Kajikawa (2 goals), Vasquez (2 goals) and Saito (1 goal). Guests scored only one goal in last 3 matches and today I see continuation of problems with goalscoring without mentioned trio. Currently their form is below top level, no doubt about that – only 2 wins in last 6 league matches.

On those circumstances I see really good chances for hosts.

在我看来，枥木有很好的机会在这场比赛中至少得一分。

枥木在最近4场主场对阵东京Verdy的比赛中3场未输。

枥木的状态很稳定——他们在最近的5场比赛中输了2场，但在这些比赛中，他们对阵的是前5名的球队。在两场比赛中，枥木都在客场比赛，这是一个巨大的不同，因为他们在主场观众面前真的很难对付。东道主在主场赢得了最近3场比赛，进了7球，只丢了1球。今天枥木将带着最强的阵容出场，我期待着又一场高质量的比赛。

另一方面，东京Verdy有严重的阵容问题，因为今天他们将没有3名关键中场:梶川(2球)，瓦斯奎兹(2球)和齐藤(1球)。客队在过去的3场比赛中只进了1球，今天我看到在没有提到三人组的情况下，进球问题继续存在。目前他们的状态低于顶级水平，毫无疑问，在过去的6场联赛中只赢了2场。

在这种情况下，我认为东道主有很好的机会。
