Kyoto head into the second leg mired in deep disappointment. After finishing the regular season with 23 points, the side lost everything in the first game - their hopes of clinching 15th place and their self-belief. Their late-season form has been woeful: just one win and five defeats in regulation time across their last seven matches. The clash against Kashiwa perfectly encapsulated Kyoto’s struggles this campaign. They started on the front foot, but their back line collapsed every time the opposition broke forward on the counter.

Editors’ Prediction
Kashiwa hold a commanding 6-2 lead, and even the boldest imagination would struggle to picture a miraculous comeback from the Lilies at this stage. Still, football rarely goes by the script, and the visitors will be desperate to restore some pride after their humiliating defeat in the first leg. Kyoto will be hoping for a miracle, but with a defence that shipped six goals already, it’s tough to see them containing Kashiwa-even if the hosts take their foot off the gas. A high-scoring draw looks likely, so we’re backing a 2-2 scoreline and both teams to score (yes).
