Chiba host Fukuoka with both seeking momentum
With both sides locked on seven points after the opening 12 games, this encounter offers a prime opportunity to kickstart their campaigns.
JEF United Chiba sit 20th in the table on seven points after 12 games, having endured a slow start to the campaign. They head into this fixture following a 2-2 draw away at Cerezo Osaka, which halted a narrow 3-2 defeat at Urawa. While Chiba are winless in their last five league outings, they have proven stubborn to beat on home soil, drawing their last two matches at the Fukuda Denshi Arena against V-Varen Nagasaki and Yokohama F. Marinos.
Avispa Fukuoka sit 19th, also on seven points from 12 games, as they continue to find their feet this season. Form has been a struggle of late, suffering four defeats in their past five matches, including a 2-1 home loss against Gamba Osaka last time out and a 3-0 reverse at Machida Zelvia. Their lone victory in that sequence came in a 2-1 home triumph over Fagiano Okayama.
