The spotlight turns to the field where the upcoming match sees Albirex Niigata and Shimizu S-Pulse meet again, 7 months after the previous J-League encounter which Shimizu S-Pulse won 2-0. Albirex Niigata come into the match following a draw against Kawasaki Frontale last Saturday in the J-League. They have several key matches to navigate before facing Shimizu S-Pulse though, including Urawa Red Diamonds and Kashima Antlers in J-League, games that could impact their momentum heading into the match against Shimizu S-Pulse.
