This season, Nagoya Grampus performed well in the league, achieving a record of 13 wins, 8 draws and 8 losses, accumulating 47 points and temporarily ranking sixth in the league. Despite this, their desire for cup competition has not diminished. It should be pointed out that Nagoya Grampus has historically won the Japan League Cup once in 2021, which gives them more experience than their opponents in the Japan League Cup.
In seven meetings with the Fukuoka Hornets, Nagoya Grampus achieved 5 wins and 2 losses, and won all three home games. However, the visiting team Fukuoka Hornets performed equally well in the league this season, achieving a record of 13 wins, 6 draws and 10 losses, accumulating 45 points and ranking eighth in the league. It is particularly worth mentioning that the Fukuoka Hornets reached the semi-finals in the Japan League Cup last season and created the best record in the team’s history. Therefore, they are very likely to show strong competitiveness again in this cup.
In the first round of the Japan Federation Cup semi-finals, the Fukuoka Hornets defeated Nagoya Grampus 1-0 at home, taking advantage of the promotion.
In terms of recent game performance, Nagoya Grampus’ state is not ideal. They lost 0-1 to the Fukuoka Hornets in the first round of their last semi-final, marking their tenth consecutive game without victory. However, it needs to be pointed out that Nagoya Grampus’ performance at their home court is still trustworthy. They have remained unbeaten in 13 consecutive official games.
In contrast, the Fukuoka Hornets’ performance in recent times has been much more impressive. They have achieved a record of 6 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses in the past nine official games, during which they only conceded 8 goals. In addition, the Fukuoka Hornets’ performance in away games is not inferior. They have achieved a record of 6 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses in their last ten trips.
From a coaching perspective, Nagoya Grampus’ head coach Kenta Hasegawa has a rich resume of Gamba Osaka’s achievements. Since taking office, he has led the team to average 1.66 points per game. In the match against the Fukuoka Hornets, he achieved a record of 8 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. In contrast, the head coach of the Fukuoka Hornets, Shigeru Hasebe, has also received a high rating of 1.61 points per game since he started his coaching career in 2020. He had a record of 2 wins and 5 losses against Nagoya Grampus, but he won the last two games.
Considering all the above factors, although Nagoya Grampus fell behind in the first round, they should not be overestimated in the second round of the match between the two sides.Return to Sohu to see more
