THE PREDICTION

This Osaka derby is between one side pushing for a top three finish and the other side that have won just one of their opening seven matches in this campaign. The home team come into this on the back of a win over Urawa Red Diamonds that means they have lost just one of their last nine matches. They come up against a Gamba Osaka side that lost 2-0 away to Nagoya last weekend to continue some low-scoring form in which they have scored just one goal in their seven matches this season; a truly remarkable record. Given that, a home win to nil seems a strong bet for this one.
