In my opinion Nagoya has all the required tools to at least avoid a loss in today’s match.

Nagoya has a huge mental advantage before this game. They love to play at this stadium as they won in 6 of the last 7 away matches against Kashiwa. Last match between both teams at this stadium 3 months ago in the league - Nagoya won 2:0.

After 4 wins in 5 matches (one draw), Nagoya in the last match lost on the road against dangerous Kawasaki, but that wasn't a deserved result at all. They should win - no doubt about that. Nagoya had above 3.00 expected goals scored in that game. Team has strong motivation to bounce back on a good track and they are able to do it. Before that loss, they made 3 consecutive wins on the road. Nagoya top players like Mikuni, Junker. Nagai, Morishima or Yonemoto are available so I trust them.

On the other hand, it is hard to trust Kashiwa. They recorded two very painful losses in a row. Twice failed to score and conceded 6 goals in the process. Hard to see big improvement at the back because their best defender Inakui left the pitch injured in the last game and will not play here. Right key defender Sekine is also out, same as important striker Hosoya. It's a huge blow and should have a very bad impact on the hosts performance.

Double chance on the away side is the most logical choice here.

在我看来，名古屋拥有所有必要的工具，至少可以避免在今天的比赛中输球。

名古屋在这场比赛前拥有巨大的心理优势。他们喜欢在这个球场比赛，因为他们在过去的7场客场比赛中赢了6场。3个月前，两队在这个球场的最后一场比赛——名古屋2:0获胜。

在5场4胜(1平)之后，名古屋在上一场客场输给了危险的川崎，但这根本不是一个应得的结果。他们应该赢，这是毫无疑问的。名古屋在那场比赛中有超过3.00个预期进球。球队有强大的动力回到一个好的轨道上，他们能够做到。在那场失利之前，他们在客场取得了3连胜。名古屋顶级选手如米库尼、容克。永井、森岛或勇本都有，所以我相信他们。

另一方面，很难信任柏华。他们连续两次惨败。两次未能进球，并在此过程中丢了6个球。很难看到后防线有很大的进步，因为他们最好的后卫稻井在上一场比赛中受伤离场，不会在这里出场。右后卫关根和重要的前锋细谷浩也缺阵。这是一个巨大的打击，应该会对东道主的表现产生非常糟糕的影响。

客队有双倍机会是最合理的选择。
