- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Sho Sasaki, as he is very good at scoring at Edion Peace Wing Hiroshima with 2 goals in the last 2 games.
- 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 54' Sanfrecce Hiroshima seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
