At the moment, the hosts are on a four-game winning streak, and in the last cup match they beat today's opponent with a score of 3:2.

Avispa Fukuoka

Fukuoka remains at the midpoint of the standings and occupies 10th place with 35 points after 25 matches. In the last round, the team unexpectedly managed to defeat Kawasaki on the road with a score of 2:5, although Fukuoka lost twice during the game.

Tip and bets

TipKashima's victory

2.02

The hosts are in first place, but there are quite a lot of competitors, so you can't lose points in a home match with Fukuoka. The guests are firmly settled in the middle of the standings and no longer have global tasks, so Kashima's tournament motivation is clearly higher. Antlers also have an advantage in terms of game level, so there are hardly any surprises waiting for us here.

Our betting tip is Kashima's victory in 2.02
