1. Urawa Red Diamonds' home dominance and offensive firepower

Urawa Red Diamonds' home performance this season can be called "Japan League home dragon", winning 7 games in 9 games, with a winning rate of up to 78%, averaging 1.56 goals per game, conceded only 0.8 goals, and completing 4 clean sheets. Especially in the last 10 home games, Urawa Red Diamonds won 85% while leading, showing a strong home momentum. Santana, the core of the offensive end, is in a hot state. He has scored 12 goals this season and has a counterattack efficiency of up to 52%. Despite recent fluctuations in defense (conceded 8 goals in the last 5 games), a stable home defense line and an efficient counterattack system are still the key to its victory.

2. Osaka Sakura's away defense risks and offensive threats

Osaka Sakura's away winning rate this season is only 33%, conceded 17 goals in the last 10 away games, and conceded 1.7 goals per game. Left-backs such as Enchanting Toriki and Sho Saki have been absent, resulting in frequent loopholes in the wing defense. Brazilian double strikers La Tang (9 goals) and Andrade (5 goals) are in full swing, scoring 10 goals in the last 6 games, but facing Urawa Red Diamonds' high-pressure pressing and intensive defense away, their counterattack efficiency may be limited. In addition, Osaka Sakura has only won one away game against Urawa Red Diamond in the last 6 away games, and her psychological disadvantage is obvious.

3. Tactical game: The goal potential under offensive and defensive contradictions

Urawa Red Diamonds' ball possession rate is as high as 82% in home games, and the opponent's offense is restricted through the interception barrier between the double midfielder Eveton and Hashimoto Boxer (14.2 interceptions per game, No. 1 in the league). The offensive end relies on Santana's counterattack speed and set-piece tactics (corner kick score rate is 25%). Osaka Sakura mainly plays breakthroughs and set pieces on the wing, but the success rate of the central defender's high-altitude ball competition is only 47%, which is easily targeted by Urawa Red Diamond's set pieces. Both sides have been relatively open on both ends of offense and defense in recent games. Urawa Red Diamond has lost more than 3 goals in the last three games. Osaka Sakura has scored 18 goals and conceded 13 goals in the last six games, and the number of goals has shown an upward trend.

4. Key factors for winning and losing and goals

Home momentum: Urawa Red Diamonds have scored twice in their last 4 home games, and the players are confident with the support of home fans.

Defensive loopholes: Osaka Sakura's away defense is loose, and if Urawa Red Diamond seizes the opportunity to score first, it may trigger a confrontation between the two sides.

Core Player Status: Urawa Red Diamond Santana and Osaka Sakura Raton's personal abilities will determine the rhythm of the game, and both sides may create scoring opportunities through personal breakthroughs or set pieces.

5. Score prediction and conclusion

Based on the offensive and defensive data of both sides and the recent status, Urawa Red Diamonds has a high probability of getting three-pointers at home, but Osaka Sakura's counterattack threat may create a goal. Expected score: Urawa Red Diamond 2-1 Osaka Sakura, or scores 2-3 goals through set pieces, quick counterattacks and opponents' defensive mistakes.
