Team Analysis:
Currently, Yokohama F. Marinos are competing with Kobe for the championship in the J1 League. Currently, Kobe is one point ahead on the points table, and the upcoming three rounds of matches are highly anticipated. One of Yokohama F. Marinos' strengths this year is their performance at home, where they have secured 10 victories with a high win rate. Despite recent consecutive matches on two fronts, Yokohama F. Marinos have shown resilience. Although they narrowly won away in the AFC Champions League against Kaya in the last match, their recent home performances include consecutive victories against several J1 League teams, including a dominant win against Sapporo. They can be considered a very formidable home team.

On the other hand, Gamba Osaka's away performance this year is just average. However, for a mid-table team in the J1 League, achieving a win rate of over 40% and an unbeaten rate of over 50% is quite commendable. Although Gamba Osaka lacks motivation recently, they still display a highly professional attitude in the league. In the last match, they managed to defeat their local rivals Vissel Kobe in the Osaka Derby. In the previous away match, they even drew against Sanfrecce Hiroshima. The team's capabilities are unquestionable.

Odd Analysis：
Although both teams are strong in the J1 League, Yokohama F. Marinos were the champions last year. In the first encounter of this season, Yokohama F. Marinos, playing as the away team, had to concede a half-goal to their opponents, and they were defeated by Gamba Osaka. This proved that the handicap given to the away team at that time was not enough. In this match, playing at home, Yokohama F. Marinos are starting with a half-goal handicap, indicating insufficient handicap. Until now, having the handicap reduced to half a goal with the focus on the home team, Yokohama F. Marinos will likely have sufficient momentum in this match. However, with insufficient handicap, in this match, data indicates that the home team may advance, and it is not afraid of accumulating momentum. Therefore, Yokohama F. Marinos may find it difficult to secure a victory in this match.

Pick：Cerezo Osaka
