Marcinho has been the most effective weapon for Kawasaki Frontale lately. The Brazilian midfielder has netted two goals in his last five matches. Nanasei Iino and Akito Fukuta are the top scorers for Sagan Tosu in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
