1.77Tip and bets
The hosts have been struggling to score points in recent league matches, which is why their promotion to the J-1 League is under threat. The visitors, on the contrary, are on the rise and would not mind backing up their success with a cup win. We believe that Marinos will be able to beat a representative of the second league in the cup match.
Our prediction is a victory for Yokohama Marinos at 1.95
Bet on total
The hosts lack reliability in defense - in the last match of the second league the team conceded four goals, and now they have to play with a representative of the top division. Most likely, the club from Yokohama will be able to cause problems for the opponent's defense, so we should expect a lot of goals scored.
Our prediction is total over 3.5 goals with odds of 2.30
Bet on corners
Most likely, the first match will be rich in dangerous moments, and the attacks will certainly involve a fair number of corners.
Our prediction is total over 8.5 corners with odds of 1.70
