Hiroshima vs. Sapporo: Japan Championship Match Prediction

The hosts have been showing extremely weak results in recent matches of the championship. This is partly due to the pressure around the championship race, partly due to participation in continental competitions. The fact remains that the team has suffered three defeats in a row in the championship, and has recently been winning only in the Champions League. The visitors, on the contrary, have been pleasing us with their results lately, despite their relegation. Surely, before leaving for the second league, the team will want to at least indirectly influence the championship race and may well take points from Hiroshima. We believe that it will not be easy for the hosts here.

Our prediction is Asian handicap (+1.5) on Sapporo for 1.90

Bet on total

Despite the large gap in the tournament table, head-to-head encounters between the teams are always tough, and the last three matches ended in a draw. Most likely, the opponents will fight equally this time and will not allow each other to create many scoring chances.

Our prediction is total under 3.5 goals for 1.70

Bet on the first half

We don't expect the opponents to go forward in force immediately after the starting whistle. It will obviously take time to get to know each other. In this scenario, a draw at the end of the first half is likely.

Our prediction is a draw in the first half at 2.85
