Sagan Tosu vs Cerezo Osaka Lineups and Last Match
Sagan
Sagan Tosu had the home advantage last weekend against Urawa Reds but despite taking the lead, the hosts ended up narrowly losing the game. Naganuma fired Sagan in front after just 8-minutes against their title-chasing guests, but Urawa equalised soon after and went in at the break 2-1 up. There were no further goals in the game so Sagan lost 2-1.
Predicted Lineup – Park (GK), Hwang, Yamazaki, Horigome, Ono, Fukuta, Naganuma, Tezuka, Kawahara, Kikuchi & Iwasaki
Cerezo
Cerezo Osaka didn't make enough of their home advantage against Avispa Fukuoka last weekend. A solitary first-half goal from Lukian proved enough for the visitors to secure all 3pts in what was a shock result. Cerezo are now 4pts behind fourth-placed Urawa Reds and need to return to winning ways if they are to keep up with the other title-challenegrs.
Predicted Lineup – Yang (GK), Jonjić, Shindo, Funaki, Toriumi, Kagawa, Croux, Kida, Ceará, Kato & Capixaba

Player to Watch: Leo Ceara
Ceara top scores for Cerezo Osaka this season with 6-goals and the Brazilian has adapted well since his move from Yokohama FM this year.
While the Brazilian striker isn't in the best of form right now, with two goals in his last 10 matches in all competitions, he still provides a big threat in the final third for the visitors and we expect the 28-year-old to leave his mark on this match.
Ceara reached double figures in each of his two previous campaigns in the J-League with Yokohama FM and we expect more of the same from the forward this season.
