Pick 1 :

Gameday in Mito for the round 2 between Mito and Sendai.

Mito is full line up for this game.

Sendai on their side has the return of two important players compare to the last game. Shingo Tomita & Ryoma Kida.

Mito didn't play this season yet, they had to face Oita but finally the game was postponed.

On their side Sendai had a difficult game against Albirex who is a stronger team, they made a 0-0 despite the fact they were dominated.

As they were relegated, Sendai had to change their roster, they didn't continue with foreigners of last season, they added Leandro Desabato who is on the bench for this game.

Despite the fact that they got a weaker roster than last season, they also got some young players from J League 1 on loan.

Mito is a middle team from the table usually, I don't see big addition, they got average addition for this season. They lost a lot of players who left to J League 1.

水户和仙台之间的第 2 轮比赛日在水户举行。

水户这场比赛有完整的阵容。

与上一场比赛相比，仙台有两名重要球员的回归。富田慎吾和木田龙马。

水户本赛季还没有比赛，他们不得不面对大分，但最终比赛被推迟了。

仙台方面与实力更强的Albirex进行了一场艰难的比赛，尽管他们占据了优势，但他们还是以0-0打平，被对手统治。

由于降级，仙台不得不改变阵容，他们没有继续使用上赛季的外援，他们签下了本场比赛在替补席的莱安德罗·德萨巴托。

尽管他们的阵容比上赛季弱，但他们也从日职联租借了一些年轻球员。

水户通常是中上游的球队，我看不出实力有很大的增加，他们本赛季的平均增加。失去了很多关键的球员。

Pick 2 :

Gameday in Kashiwa for the round 2 between Kashiwa & the Marinos.

Kashiwa will be without Yuki Muto. Douglas was a bit injured but the team didn't say anything about him so he should be fine.

For the Marinos, Yusuke Nishida is out.

Kashiwa just played in Cup but this isn't important because they put a reserve line up on that game.

On first game of the season they faced Shonan, Shonan was stronger but they got a red card who changed the whole game and also Kashiwa got a red card.

Yokohama on their side faced the big team of Frontale, they didn't play well in the first half and they were behind 0-1 but in second half they changed completely the game and they were very efficient. Elber scored twice, Anderson Lopes got some time even if I don't expect him able to be a regular starter in this team.

Edudo defensively didn't found his habits yet but slowly I expect their defense to be much stronger.

For me clearly the Marinos will give a lot of trouble offensively, even if they lost Maeda they showed that it doesn't matter and that their offense is very powerful.

Kashiwa is a average team in Japan last years, they are playing an offensive football so on a game like this they will have big problems.

I expect 1-2 for the Marinos.

柏太阳神与横滨水手之间的第 2 轮比赛日。

柏太阳神将缺少武藤由纪。道格拉斯受了点伤，但球队没有透露任何关于他的消息，所以他应该没事。

横滨水手的Yusuke Nishida 缺席。

太阳神刚刚参加了杯赛，但这并不重要，因为他们在那场比赛中安排了轮换队。

赛季首战对阵湘南，湘南实力更强，但红牌改变了整场比赛，柏也吃到了红牌。

横滨这边面对的是川崎前锋，他们上半场发挥不佳，0-1落后，但下半场彻底改变了比赛，他们的效率很高。埃尔伯梅开二度，安德森洛佩斯得到了一些时间，即使我不认为他能够成为这支球队的常规首发。

在防守端还没有找到他的习惯，但慢慢地我预计他们的防守会更强大。

很明显横滨水手会在进攻端给很多麻烦，即使他们失去前田，他们的进攻依然非常强大。

柏太阳神在去年是日本的一支普通球队，他们踢的是进攻型足球，所以在这样的比赛中他们会遇到很大的问题。

我预计水手胜，比分 1-2。
