Yokohama F.Marinos
Current Form
In the Japanese league, Yokohama F. Marinos has slipped to 11th place with 41 points. The team appears unlikely to contest the top positions, focusing instead on cup competitions. In the Champions League, they suffered a heavy defeat against Gwangju, losing 3-7. However, they bounced back in the next round by defeating another Korean club, Ulsan, with a solid 4-0 victory. They still have opportunities to compete for the Emperor's Cup and the League Cup.

12.00Tip and bets
The guests enjoy playing an attacking style, however, the club is currently prioritizing other tournaments. There's little incentive to push hard in the league as climbing above mid-table seems unlikely. Additionally, the hosts have not scored in their last three matches, making it improbable that this game will see many goals.
Our prediction is under 3.5 goals at 1.70.
Match Outcome Bet
The home team is at risk of relegation if their losing streak continues, making it essential to maximize points in their upcoming matches. We believe the team can secure a win in their home clash against Yokohama, who lack motivation for the remainder of the tournament.
Our prediction is an Asian handicap (0) on Kashiwa with odds of 1.62.
Corner Bet
Considering the above, we conclude that both teams are likely to play conservatively. It is unlikely there will be many corner kicks in this match.
Our prediction is a total of under 10.5 corners with odds of 1.90.
