Kawasaki Frontale manager Toru Oniki insists last month's hammering of Urawa Reds will count for nothing when the two J. League teams clash in the first leg of the Asian Champions League quarterfinals on Wednesday night.
Yu Kobayashi scored twice as Kawasaki crushed the Reds 4-1 at Todoroki Stadium in the J. League on July 5, and Frontale's recent form suggests they are favorites to come out on top of what should be an entertaining contest.
Unbeaten so far in this season's ACL, Frontale have only lost once in their last 10 league matches and are on a three-match winning streak.
