One game is going to happen in the Japanese J1 League on Wednesday night and that is going to be between Urawa Reds and Shonan. After 17 games, Urawa Reds has 8 wins, 6 draws, 3 losses, a total of 30 points and 5th place while Shonan has 2 wins, 6 draws, 9 losses, a total of 12 points and 18th place. In this game, I'm predicting that Urawa Reds is going to win.

In the last 3 games, Urawa has collected 3 draws. On the road against Yokohama, the team should have collected 3 points because Urawa had 63% ball control, 11 more total shots and 2 more shots on target. At home, Urawa has 2 wins and 2 draws in the last 4 games but overall they are a good home team with 5 wins and 2 draws in 8 games, with a total of 14 goals scored and 8 conceded. Per xG, the team is expected to score 1.58 goals at home and concede 1.14.

Shonan is having a nightmare season. Since April 29th, the team has 7 losses and 1 draw in 8 games. The team struggles a lot. On the road, they have lost the last 3 games. Overall this season, Shonan has 1 win and 3 draws in 8 games, with a total of 11 goals scored and 12 conceded. Per xG, the team is expected to score 1.50 goals on the road and concede 1.58.

Takahiro Akimoto was forced off injured midway through the 2nd half against Kawasaki last time out and the full-back is a doubt for Urawa. Shonan will take to the pitch without the services of experienced defender Takuya Okamoto, who has missed the last two games through a muscle injury. In this match, Urawa should collect 3 points. They are in much better shape right now and they need points in order to fight for the TOP 2 in the league. Shonan is playing terribly, they lost the last game 0:6 so there's a lot to think about in their camp.

周三晚上日本J1联赛将有一场比赛，比赛将在浦和红军和湘南之间进行。17场比赛后浦和红军8胜6平3负，积30分，排名第5，而湘南队2胜6平9负，积12分，排名第18。在这场比赛中，我预测浦和红人队会赢。

浦泽和在最近3场比赛中取得了3场平局。在客场对阵横滨的比赛中，球队本应得到3分，因为浦泽和控球率为63%，总射门次数多11次，射正次数多2次。在主场，浦和在最近的4场比赛中取得了2胜2平，但总的来说，他们是一支优秀的主队，在8场比赛中取得了5胜2平，总共进了14球丢了8球。平均每场比赛，球队将在主场打入1.58球，丢1.14球。

夏南正在经历一个噩梦季节。自4月29日以来，球队在8场比赛中7负1平。整个团队都很挣扎。在客场，他们输掉了最近3场比赛。本赛季，湘南队在8场比赛中取得了1胜3平的成绩，进11球失12球。平均每场比赛，球队预计将在客场打入1.50球，失球1.58球。

上次对阵川崎的比赛中，秋本隆弘在下半场中途受伤下场，这位边后卫对浦川来说是个疑问。雄南将在没有经验丰富的后卫冈本拓也的情况下上场，冈本拓也因肌肉受伤缺席了过去两场比赛。在这场比赛中浦和应该得到3分。他们现在的状态好多了，他们需要积分来争夺联赛前二。湘南打得很糟糕，他们以0:6输掉了比赛，所以他们的阵营有很多值得思考的地方。
