Vissel Kobe take on Kashiwa Reysol this weekend

The J1 League returns to the fold with another round of matches this weekend as Vissel Kobe lock horns with Kashiwa Reysol on Saturday.

Both teams have stepped up in recent weeks and will want to prove their mettle this weekend.

Vissel Kobe are currently in 15th place in the J1 League standings and have failed to meet expectations so far this season. The hosts held Kashima Antlers to a 1-1 draw in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this weekend.

Kashiwa Reysol, on the other hand, are in fourth place in the league table at the moment and have been impressive this year. The away side edged Consadole Sapporo to a 1-0 victory this week and will look to achieve a similar result in this fixture.

Vissel Kobe vs Kashiwa Reysol Prediction

Vissel Kobe have rejuvenated their J1 League campaign in recent weeks and will look to stay away from the relegation zone this season. The likes of Andres Iniesta and Bojan Krkic have plenty of experience and will need to bring their skills and guidance to the fore this weekend.

Kashiwa Reysol have overcome their mid-season slump and have been impressive over the past month. Both teams are evenly matched on paper and could play out a draw on Saturday.

Prediction: Vissel Kobe 1-1 Kashiwa Reysol
