J-League stats and tips

Urawa Reds v Kawasaki - Both Teams To Score - yes

When Urawa Reds and Kawasaki Frontale have met in the J-League, goals have generally followed. Both teams have scored in each of their last 6 clashes, so the Saitama Stadium 2002 crowd will be expecting another nail-biter on Saturday morning.

Albirex v Gamba Osaka - Double Chance - away win or draw

What a dreadful run of results for Albirex Niigata and their fans, with their last J-League win now coming 7 matches ago. Boss Rikizo Matsuhashi simply must find a solution, and sooner rather than later. Will Gamba Osaka at Denka Big Swan Stadium on Saturday come too soon, or be a turning point?

Avispa v Urawa Reds - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring fixtures aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Avispa Fukuoka have had too many chances to test that theory this season. 24 of their side's fixtures in J-League have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will Maciej Skorza and his Urawa Reds team be able to inject goals into this encounter on Saturday? Or will it be same old same old?

Cerezo v Kashima - Double Chance - away win or draw

M. Chugo and his Kashima Antlers team have developed a handy habit of getting something from just about every J-League game they play. They're unbeaten in 5 in J-League now, so Akio Kogiku and his Cerezo Osaka charges will have to be at their best if they're going to get anything at Yanmar Stadium Nagai on Saturday.

Jubilo Iwata v Tokyo - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's the task facing Jubilo Iwata boss A. Yokouchi on Saturday. His side face Tokyo having failed to get anything but defeat out of their last 3 J-League games.

Kashiwa v Vissel Kobe - Double Chance - home win or draw

Vissel Kobe have found something of a bogey team in Kashiwa Reysol in the J-League in recent years. The two clubs have met on 6 occasions since 2021, and Kashiwa Reysol have been unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at SANKYO FRONTIER Kashiwa Stadium could be another hard one for T. Yoshida & co.

Nagoya v Sagan Tosu - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Nagoya Grampus Eight and Sagan Tosu have laboured through a number of tight clashes in recent years. With each of their last 5 J-League meetings seeing under 2.5 goals, the strikers picked by Kenta Hasegawa and K. Kitani may be in for a tough morning.

Shonan v Yokohama FM - Double Chance - home win or draw

Weeks have passed since Shonan Bellmare’s joyous supporters watched their team suffer defeat in J-League. Satoshi Yamaguchi’s squad is now unbeaten in 5 games, and he'll be full of belief that they can keep going against Yokohama F. Marinos at Shonan BMW Stadium Hiratsuka on Saturday morning. Top odds of 1.40 can be taken advantage of to back Shonan Bellmare the double chance market.

Tokyo Verdy v Kawasaki - Over / Under 1.5 Goals - over

All of Tokyo Verdy 1969's last 9 J-League games has had two or more goals, suggesting that we could be in for a treat as they go head to head with Kawasaki Frontale on Saturday morning.

Hiroshima v Sapporo - Win / Draw / Win - away win

Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's the task facing Sanfrecce Hiroshima boss Michael Skibbe on Sunday. His side face Consadole Sapporo having been beaten in each of their last 3 J-League games.
