Sagan Tosu and Kashiwa Reysol battle for three points in a J1 League matchday 21 fixture on Sunday (June 30). The hosts will look to get back to winning ways following their 1-0 defeat at Cerezo Osaka on Wednesday.
Kohei Tezuka's eighth-minute own goal proved to be the difference between the two sides. Kashiwa, meanwhile, shared the spoils in a 2-2 draw at Kyoto. Yuto Misao and Mao Hosoya scored first-half goals to ensure the game was level at the break. Sota Kawasaki helped Kyoto retake the lead three minutes into the second half, but Matheus Savio equalised deep into injury time.
The stalemate left the gold-and-black in 15th spot in the table, having garnered 23 points from 20 games, while Sagan are 17th with as many points.

Kashiwa, meanwhile, are two spots ahead of their hosts and don't have immediate relegation concerns. However, their away form has been poor, so boss Masami Ihara will deman an improved performance.
