Okayama vs Sendai Match Analysis

Okayama (Japan 2nd Division 5th Place / DWWDL)

Overall, their defense is quite strong. They are a team with a knack for narrowing line gaps compactly. However, they are weak against top-tier teams. In the last match against Shimizu, they conceded two goals to foreign attackers and recorded a loss. While they generally fare well against Sendai, Sendai also has quite a few scoring routes.

- Absentees: Sora (DM / C grade), Ota (FW / C grade)

Sendai (Japan 2nd Division 4th place / DDDW)

They are proficient in creating various attacking chances such as set-pieces and crosses. Sendai's weakness is their ability to hold the lead. There is much criticism about their lack of ability to maintain a lead even after scoring the first goal. In fact, since April, they have only had two clean sheets. In the last match against Tochigi, they won narrowly 3-2.

- Absentees: Matheus (DF / B grade)
