Team Analysis
Fagiano Okayama has shown inconsistent form recently. In their last 15 games, they have 4 wins, 5 draws, and 6 losses. Their attack has been somewhat lackluster, scoring an average of 0.73 goals per game. However, they have a relatively solid home record, with 3 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses in 7 home games. Their 2 - 1 victory over Tokushima Vortis in the J League 2 on June 3 gave them a confidence boost.
Giravanz Kitakyushu, on the other hand, is in a poor run of form. They have lost their last 4 matches against Ehime FC, YSCC, Tegevajaro Miyazaki, and Kagoshima United. In their last 15 games, they have 6 wins, 4 draws, and 5 losses. Their defense has been a major concern, conceding an average of 0.60 goals per game, and they haven't kept a clean sheet in their last 10 matches.

Lineup Analysis
Fagiano Okayama may line up with a formation that balances attack and defense. Their midfielders will aim to control the tempo and create scoring opportunities for the forwards. Defensively, they will look to build on their recent solid performances.
Giravanz Kitakyushu will likely try to set up a defensive - minded lineup to stop Fagiano Okayama's attacks. Their midfielders will need to work hard to regain possession and launch counter - attacks. Up front, they will hope to capitalize on any rare chances that come their way.

Nowgoal Prediction
Based on the teams' current form and overall performance, Fagiano Okayama has a clear edge. Their home - field advantage and relatively better form give them the upper hand. Giravanz Kitakyushu will struggle to turn their poor form around against a Fagiano Okayama side that will be eager to progress in the Emperor Cup.

Prediction: Fagiano Okayama win 2 - 0.
