J-League stats and tips
Avispa v Kashiwa - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Avispa Fukuoka have enjoyed success against Kashiwa Reysol in the J-League recently, with their streak now extending to 5 straight wins against them. M. Ihara will be doing all he can to turn the tide, while Do-Kyun Kim will be expecting more of the same on Saturday morning.
Fagiano v Kyoto Sanga - Double Chance - home win or draw
Takashi Kiyama and his Fagiano Okayama team have developed a handy way of claiming something from pretty much every J-League game they play. They're unbeaten in 6 in J-League now, so Kwi-Jea Cho and his Kyoto Sanga team will need to be on top of their game if they're to get the win at City Light Stadium on Saturday.
Vissel Kobe v Urawa Reds - Over / Under 3.5 Goals - under
Supporters have seen 3 goals or less in all of Urawa Reds's last 11 J-League games. As they clash with T. Yoshida's Vissel Kobe at NOEVIR Stadium Kobe on Saturday, those in the know should be backing more of the same.
Yokohama v Tokyo - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
We all love a game in which more than 4 goals fly in, but Tokyo's dedicated supporters have now had to wait 8 games to watch their club serve one up. That’s too long by anyone’s count. Could the streak come to an end on Saturday morning, as they face Shuhei Yomoda's Yokohama at NHK Spring Mitsuzawa Football Stadium? With odds of 1.08 on there being 4 goals or fewer being scored, the UK's leading bookmakers are making their thoughts on the matter perfectly clear.
Yokohama FM v Albirex - Double Chance - home win or draw
What a miserable run of results for Albirex Niigata and their supporters, with their last J-League success now coming 9 games ago. Boss D. Sudo needs to find a remedy, and preferably right away. Will Yokohama F. Marinos at Nissan Stadium on Saturday provide some relief?
Kawasaki v Nagoya - Win / Draw / Win - home win
It's all eyes on Kawasaki Frontale at the moment. They've beaten the opposition in 5 consecutive league games, and Igor Jovicevic will be desperate to keep that run going as they go into battle with Nagoya Grampus Eight at Kawasaki Todoroki Stadium on Saturday morning.
Shonan v Kashima - Double Chance - away win or draw
Luckily for them, it has been quite some time since Kashima Antlers’s merry supporters watched their lads suffer defeat in J-League. Toru Oniki’s squad is now unbeaten in 7 games, and he will be full of belief that they can extend that run against Shonan Bellmare at Lemon Gas Stadium Hiratsuka (Hiratsuka) on Saturday morning. Top odds of 1.29 are available to back Kashima Antlers to avoid defeat yet again.
Machida v Hiroshima - Over / Under 0.5 Goals - over
0-0s have been an almost unheard of occurrence in Sanfrecce Hiroshima's J-League outings recently. Their last 34 have had over 0.5 goals, and Sunday morning's match with G. Kuroda's Machida Zelvia really should continue that streak.
Tokyo Verdy v Shimizu - Over / Under 1.5 Goals - under
There are some football fans that love the tension of a low-scoring fixture, and they really should keep an eye on Tokyo Verdy 1969 v Shimizu S-Pulse. Each of Shimizu S-Pulse's last 3 J-League outings has had under 1.5 goals, and that streak may go on for some time yet.
