1.95Tip and bets
After the first match, the result of this confrontation is no longer in question, so the second match turns into a mere formality, which both teams understand. It is unlikely that we will see spectacular football here, the teams are probably focused on solving their problems in the national championship.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals at 1.85
Bet on the outcome
The hosts clearly prioritize the championship game, where they have a good chance of fighting for the championship. It is quite difficult to fight on two fronts, so the defeat in the first match is not surprising. Most likely, the team will not kill itself on the field in the second match either, because the club no longer needs a victory.
Bet - Albirex Niigata will not lose. This bet is offered for 1.90
Bet on corners
We don't think the opponents will be very enthusiastic about this match, so we shouldn't expect many flank attacks. There probably won't be many corners either.
Bet - total under 9.5 corners. This bet is offered for 1.80
