Vissel Kobe has a losing record, getting outscored on the season because of a weak offense. They've tallied 14 goals in 11 matches, tied for fifth-worst in the league. Vissel Kobe's defense has been struggling of late, too, on a 1-3-1 run allowing 11 goals. They have to head out on the road for this one, and the defense has surrendered five goals in its last two road games. They head to the Urawa Red Diamonds, ranked fourth in the Japanese J-1 League standings. Urawa is off wins over Sanfrecce Hiroshima (1-0) and Gamba Osaka (3-1), a pair of teams ranked in the Top 8. Vissel Kobe has not won at Urawa in its last seven league trips here, so back home field. Play the Urawa Red Diamonds on the moneyline.
