Sagan Tosu arrive in Akita as the bigger name, but they're carrying heavy legs and a style that keeps getting punished. They dominate the ball and lose to teams that sit tight and break fast, and that is exactly what Akita do. Add a 120-minute cup tie a few days earlier, and this sets up well for the home side.
