The kick off times are 10pm and 1am Japanese time. Where do you get 3:45 from ?
Surely you mean 2:45 which for true football fans is a reasonable time to go to sleep....lets face it, it's only for a month !
The only games I intend to watch in the morning are the 4am kick offs. |

| Well according to my Daily Yomiuri schedule, most games are at 3:45. A few start at 12am and some even start a bit earlier but I'm pretty sure most of them start at 4 am in the morning. |

My son wakes up at 5am every day (or earlier), so I will have something to do now with my early early mornings. |
