J-League Predictions

J-League stats and tips

Cerezo v Urawa Reds - Double Chance - away win or draw

It has been a dreadful succession of results for Cerezo Osaka and their supporters, with their last J-League victory now coming 5 games ago. Boss Arthur Thomas Papastamatis has to find a remedy, and sooner rather than later. Will Urawa Reds at KINCHO Stadium on Friday provide some relief?

Fagiano v Yokohama FM - Half Time / Full Time - away / away

Fans of the half time/full time market will be keeping their eye on Yokohama F. Marinos. Steve Bruce's side has been incredibly commanding in recent league matches, leading at HT in each of their last 3 and going on to win them all at full time. Fagiano Okayama on Saturday morning can't come soon enough.

Shimizu v Shonan - Both Teams To Score - yes

When Shimizu S-Pulse and Shonan Bellmare have met in the J-League, goals have been the order of the day. Both teams have found the net in each of their last 5 matches against one another, so the Iwagin Stadium faithful will be expecting another thriller on Saturday morning.

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

What a miserable run of results for Albirex Niigata and their fans, with their last J-League success now coming 15 games ago. Boss D. Sudo simply must find a remedy, and quickly. Will Gamba Osaka at Denka Big Swan Stadium on Saturday be the one in which they turn it around?

Kashiwa v Tokyo Verdy - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under

Kashiwa Reysol's recent matches in J-League have delivered goals and thrills along the way, but it has been some time since Ricardo Soares's players treated their fans to a ding-dong battle with goals galore. There have been no more than 4 goals in each of their last 16 games.

Kyoto Sanga v Hiroshima - Double Chance - away win or draw

Every now and then we get a golden spell in football, and it has now been a while since since Sanfrecce Hiroshima’s joyous fans watched their lads suffer defeat in J-League. Michael Skibbe’s boys are now unbeaten in 5 games, and he will be telling them that they can extend that run against Kyoto Sanga at Sanga Stadium by Kyocera (Kameoka) on Saturday morning. Best odds of 1.29 are available to back Sanfrecce Hiroshima to either win or draw.

Nagoya v Yokohama - Both Teams To Score - yes

Nagoya Grampus Eight supporters have become used to entertainment at each end when their team plays in J-League, with both teams having found the net in every one of their last 5 matches. Yokohama on Saturday morning may well be another goal-fest.

Avispa v Machida - Over / Under 1.5 Goals - under

There are some football fans that appreciate the tension of a low-scoring game, and they should probably keep an eye on Avispa Fukuoka v Machida Zelvia. Each of Avispa Fukuoka's last 3 J-League games has had under 1.5 goals, and that form may go on for some time yet.

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

Toru Oniki and his Kashima Antlers troops have developed a useful way of taking something from almost every J-League match they play. They're unbeaten in 5 in J-League now, so T. Yoshida and his Vissel Kobe charges will need to be on top of their game if they're going to get anything at Kashima Soccer Stadium on Saturday.

Tokyo v Kawasaki - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under

Tokyo's recent matches in J-League have delivered decent entertainment, and a fair amount of goals, but it has been a while since Rikizo Matsuhashi's side treated their fans to the kind of goal-fest we all really want to see. There have been no more than 4 goals in every one of their last 14 games.

Nagoya v Yokohama FM - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like putting your money on goals and choosing a victor, then the upcoming match between Nagoya Grampus Eight and Yokohama F. Marinos could warrant a closer look. Kenta Hasegawa's side have lost 3 games this season in which both sides have found the net. That's a record in J-League.
