Third-placed Machida Zelvia host second-placed Sanfrecce Hiroshima
Only a single point separates second from third as Sanfrecce Hiroshima visit Machida Zelvia after 13 rounds of the J1 League season.
Machida Zelvia sit third on 28 points after 13 matches, having made a fine start to the campaign. They head into this clash on the back of a 0-0 draw away at Vissel Kobe, extending their unbeaten run to four matches following dominant shut-out wins over Shimizu S-Pulse (5-0) and Avispa Fukuoka (3-0).
Sanfrecce Hiroshima occupy second place with 29 points from their 13 fixtures, having won four of their last five league games. They bounced back emphatically from a 4-0 defeat at V-Varen Nagasaki by brushing aside Shimizu S-Pulse 4-0 on home soil last time out.
