We said: Sagan Tosu 1-1 Urawa Red Diamonds

While the scorelines that both these sides recorded in their match look impressive on the surface, we can arguably draw a line across those results on the basis that they were playing a team that have been bleeding goals this season. This looks like a much more even contest, and with both sides protecting a solid record in recent weeks, we feel that chances will be hard to come by and that they will eventually cancel each other out in the end.
