Furthermore, there was the match of Sanfrecce Hiroshima vs. Sagan Tosu. Here, Sanfrecce Hiroshima was the winner, defeating Sagan Tosu 4-0. Yet another very excting football game was Avispa Fukuoka vs. Shonan Bellmare, although no team managed to prevail and it ended in a 1-1 draw. Here, on Oddspedia, we provide you with a detailed overview and statistics of the upcoming J.League matchday in Japan– detailed statistics forall the games on the fixtures, the teams and their current form.

Round 4 Highlights

Probably the most anticipated match will be Vissel Kobe vs Sanfrecce Hiroshima on 03/16/2024 at 05:00. Sanfrecce Hiroshima has the upper hand in this match, since they are currently on the first place in the table. However, they still want to make sure to keep their rank. Both teams won their last match (Vissel Kobe won against FC Tokyo and Sagan Tosu was beaten by Sanfrecce Hiroshima), so it will be exciting to see which one of them will play better in their upcoming clash. A look at their recent performance might shed some light on that question: Vissel Kobe was able to win the majority of their latest matches and Sanfrecce Hiroshima was also victorious in 2 of their last 3 matches.

Another match fans are looking forward to takes place on 03/16/2024 at 05:00. Here, Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo (currently in 19th place) will face Machida Zelvia (2nd place). Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo might be in a weaker position here, since they didn't manage to win their last match against Urawa Red Diamonds–while Kashima Antlers was beaten by Machida Zelvia. Looking at the teams' performance in their last matches can also be an indicator about their current form: Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo didn't perform well in the latest matches and lost the majority of them, while Machida Zelvia played a lot better, winning 2 of their last three games.

People are also excited to see Sagan Tosu fight against Cerezo Osaka. They currently are in 15th place and 6th place, making their match interesting to watch. Cerezo Osaka won their last match against Tokyo Verdy, while Sagan Tosu didn't manage to win against Sanfrecce Hiroshima. Now, Cerezo Osaka hast the chance to show that they're the better team altogether. You can also look at their recent performance to get an idea of their chances in the upcoming match: Cerezo Osaka had a mediocre seaon lately, they only managed a draw in most of their recent matches. Of their last three games, Sagan Tosu lost 2, so they will have to improve their performance to win this match.

League Table

Sanfrecce Hiroshima are currently leading the table with 7 points and a goal differencial of 6 (7 scored and 1 received). So far, they have won 2 out of their 3 matches. But since Kashiwa Reysol (2/7pts) have the same amount of points, it will be exciting to see if one of them can take the lead. In any case, players will give their best to help their team win. But not only the top of the table has some interesting matches to offer–teams in the lower half also have to fight hard to stay in their league and not finish the season in last place. If they fight hard, Nagoya Grampus could actually stay in the league, since they're only 2 points behind FC Tokyo (17/2pts), who are in need of points to not face relegation.

The biggest positive change in position, compared to the last matchday, has been made by Cerezo Osaka (15/3 points), who moved up eight positions and are now in 15th place in the league. On the other side, Sagan Tosu (6/5 points) made the biggest loss in positions, losing a total of eight ranks.
