J1 League

The J1 League is the top division of football in Japan and one of the strongest leagues in Asia, founded in 1992 and known for its organised, attractive football. Its clubs play a home-and-away season, with the bottom sides relegated to the J2 League and the leading teams qualifying for the AFC Champions League Elite, Asia's top club competition. Kashima Antlers are among the most successful clubs in its history. Golden Predictions follows the J1 League with match analysis, form guides and predictions for upcoming fixtures.
