FAQs: Pohang vs Kashima

How can I watch Pohang vs. Kashima in the U.S.?

You can watch Pohang vs. Kashima on Surprise Stream (surprisestream.com). It offers a free preview before you subscribe.

What time does Pohang vs. Kashima start?

Kickoff is at 6:00 a.m. Eastern on Wednesday, October 28, 2026 (5:00 a.m. Central). That is an early start for U.S. viewers, so plan to tune in before the morning gets underway.

Where is the match being played, and which team is at home?

Kashima Antlers are hosting Pohang Steelers at Kashima Soccer Stadium in Japan. Kashima’s match guide identifies Antlers as the home team and Pohang as the away team; the club’s ticket announcement also names the stadium as the venue.

What competition and stage is this match part of?

The game is part of the 2026/27 AFC Champions League Elite league stage, Matchday 3. It is a league-stage fixture rather than a knockout match, so the result contributes to each club’s campaign in the competition’s league phase.

When do the stadium gates open, and when should fans arrive?

Kashima’s match guide gives a planned gate-opening time of 5:00 p.m. Japan Standard Time, two hours before kickoff. It warns that entrances may be especially congested during the hour before the match and recommends arriving at least two hours early; that means reaching the stadium around gate opening rather than waiting until close to kickoff.
