Personal analysis: Niigata Albirex is a pure defensive counterattack type team. The team mainly relies on the defense in the backcourt to counterattack with medium and long passes. The passing and coordination ability in the frontcourt is relatively poor. The offensive lineup in the game has been adjusted this season, and it has not received too good results so far. Ono Yuji, Takagi Yoshiro, Hasegawa Motoki, etc. are mostly used as counterattack points in the forward position. The scoring efficiency of the players is not stable. In the entire offensive end, except for Taniguchi Kaito, the ability is relatively outstanding, the rest of the players are relatively average. The team's defense is pretty good in terms of man-marking and blocking. At least there will be no missing players in positional battles. However, once the offense and defense switch quickly or the opponent plays high-pressure defense, the defense will make mistakes more often. Machida Zelvia is an offensive team. Its two wingers have good passing and counterattack capabilities. Whether it is a fast-paced counterattack or a positional battle, the ability to hold the ball and pass is not bad. The right winger Kaiki Mochizuki, the wing forward Takuma Nishimura and the full-back Daihachi Okamura cooperate well on the field, especially Daihachi Okamura will frequently move forward to the front of the goal to participate in the offensive cooperation. On the left, it is basically Yuki Soma and Kitado Shimoda who are responsible for passing and organizing the offense. Relatively speaking, the center position Shota Fujio and Duke will play a smaller role. The two are more focused on attracting opponents in the penalty area as the defensive focus. The team's overall defensive ability is quite satisfactory. Since the team plays mainly in a three-back formation, and Okamura Daihachi participates more in the offense, the team will be slightly disadvantaged when facing teams with strong quick counterattack ability. In some games, once they are ahead, they like to play in a bus style.

Niigata Swan is weaker than Machida Zelvia in overall strength, especially in the richness of the frontcourt offense. There is a clear gap between the two teams, and the defensive ability of the Niigata Swan team itself is not strong, so Machida Zelvia has a relatively large advantage when the two teams play normally. In this game, the 0.25 goal handicap of Niigata Swan at home is a bit low, especially when Machida Zelvia has performed well on the field recently, the organization has not given enough support. Lao Li predicts that the possibility of the two teams shaking hands and making peace in this game will be higher. I am optimistic about the Niigata Swan +0.25 win option, and the score is expected to be 0-0 or 1-1.
