Fresh off a string of underwhelming outings, Avispa Fukuoka is stuck in a noticeable slump heading into this Emperor's Cup fixture. The J1 League side has posted an extremely low win rate across its most recent J1 and J.League Cup matches, with only two draws and five losses recorded in that stretch. Their lack of attacking threat was fully laid bare in the home defeat to Sanfrecce Hiroshima, where they lost 0-1 and managed a mere 2 corner kicks compared to the opponent's 16, a clear sign of their severe deficiency in generating offensive chances. They failed to bounce back in the subsequent away trip against Shimizu S-Pulse, falling 0-1 once more to extend their winless run, as they get set to host J2 League side Yokohama FC for this high-stakes cup clash. Away from their earlier notable wins over sides like Cerezo Osaka, Avispa Fukuoka have shown clear signs of fatigue across both attacking and defensive phases over the past month. Their defensive solidity has dropped notably, with r

Relying on the home atmosphere, their main goal-scoring methods are crosses from the flanks and the striker Brugi's opportunist goals in the middle. However, there is a risk. When they push forward aggressively, there will be gaps behind their defense, which Athletic Bilbao can take advantage of for quick counterattacks on the flanks. If they lose the midfield battle, their defense will be under continuous pressure. Recently, Bilbao has been deploying a 4-2-3-1 formation, focusing on flanking attacks and through runs in the half-spaces.
