Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest we don't have an obvious winner in this fixture, but good reason to think Tokyo Verdy and Cerezo will score 2 or more goals between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head historically, and neither Hiroshi Jofuku or Arthur Thomas Papastamatis has suffered the frustration of many 0-0s recently either. The bookies are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.40 equating to approximately a 76% probability.
