Grampus Ready for Trip the Sand Pit

Nagoya are already for their away match at Oita's Kyushu Oil Dome Stadium. Manager Stojkovic has already told his players to take the state of "pitch" into consideration and avoid getting injured. Unlike Urawa's Marcus Tulio, who had to find out the hard way, despite the notoriety of the Trinita's shoddy sod.

Normally, I would be looking forward to us improving out goal difference against the bottom team, but will happy if our players simply emerge unscathed from the encounter.
