Match announcement
Tokyo Verdy
Current form
At the final stage of the season, Tokyo Verdy finally found its game. In the last matches, Hiroshi Yafuku charges managed to beat Urawa (2:1) and Albirex Niigata (2:0), and also take points from the main contender for the championship, Vissel Kobe (1:1). If they had played like this from the very beginning of the season, they would now clearly be in the top three of the national championship. Unfortunately, Tokyo Verdy no longer has a chance to win medals, but the players still intend to please their fans until the end of the season.
Disqualifications and injuries
The only injured player on the home team roster is 18-year-old Joey Yamamoto.
Interesting trends for betting
- The team has suffered only one defeat in its last ten matches.
- The hosts have won two of their last three matches
Estimated lineup: Vidotto - Tsunashima, Chida, Taniguchi - Miyahara, Morita, Saito, Onaga - Yamada, Kimura, Miki.
Kawasaki Frontale
Current form
Kawasaki is not playing its best this season. The Asian Champions League participant is only in 13th place in the standings, and this is taking into account that there are only two matches left until the end of the regular championship. The club is not performing ideally on the international arena either. In the four opening rounds, there were victories over Ulsan (1:0) and Shanghai Port (3:1), and the team suffered a fiasco against Gwangju (0:1) and Shanghai Shenhua (0:2). As for the J-League, in the last rounds, the club tied with Urawa (1:1) and Kawasaki (1:1).
Disqualifications and injuries
Yasuto Wakizaki appearance on the field is questionable.
Interesting trends for betting
- The team has not suffered a single defeat in the last four matches.
- The visitors have not won in the last four rounds of the J-League
Estimated lineup: Chon - Vermeskerken, Sasaki, Mariyama, Miura - Lenaga, Kawahara, Yamamoto, Marcinho - Yamada, Erison.
Trends
Bet Exact score 2:0
The hosts have won three of their last four games by that score.
13.00Bet At least one team will not score
This bet has played in the last four head-to-head matches
2.15Bet Number 2 in the final score
This pattern has worked in four of the hosts' last five matches
2.15Tip and bets
The hosts are much higher in the table, and they approached the season finale in much better shape than the visitors. Kawasaki is also participating in the Asian Champions League, which probably prevents the team from showing its best game in the national league. The Tokyo team will probably win in the penultimate round.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (0) on Tokyo Verdy for 1.92
Bet on total
The teams are very attentive to the defense of their goal and rarely allow their opponents to dominate their penalty area. The last face-to-face match between these opponents ended with no goals scored at all. We think that we should not expect a goal extravaganza now either.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals for 1.95
Bet on corners
Both teams constantly try to avoid corner kicks, as they often create dangerous moments. It is unlikely that the upcoming match will be an exception. Let bet that there will be few corner kicks.
Our prediction is under 9.5 corners for 1.75
