J-League Predictions

J-League stats and tips

Hiroshima v Tokyo - Double Chance - home win or draw

Happy days! It has now been a long while since Sanfrecce Hiroshima’s joyous fans watched their team get beaten in J-League. Michael Skibbe’s boys are now unbeaten in 6 games, and he will be expecting that they can keep going against Tokyo at EDION Stadium on Friday morning. Best value odds of 1.14 are available to back Sanfrecce Hiroshima to get the win or the draw.

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

We all dream of our club suddenly becoming invincible, and for some fans that dream comes true. It has been weeks since Kashima Antlers’s happy fans watched their lads lose in J-League. Toru Oniki’s men are now unbeaten in 10 outings, and he will be telling them that they can extend that run against Vissel Kobe at NOEVIR Stadium Kobe on Friday morning. Best value odds of 1.80 are available to back Kashima Antlers to get the win or the draw.

Fagiano v Cerezo - Win / Draw / Win - home win

It's never easy to end a losing run, but that's exactly what must be done by Cerezo Osaka boss Arthur Thomas Papastamatis on Saturday. His side face Fagiano Okayama having lost each of their last 3 J-League outings.

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

Ricardo Rodríguez Suárez and his Kashiwa Reysol troops have developed a convenient way of claiming something from pretty much every J-League match they play. They're unbeaten in 7 in J-League now, so Daniel Poyatos Algaba and his Gamba Osaka team will need to be on top of their game if they're to stand any chance at Nishigaoka National Stadium on Saturday.

Kawasaki v Shimizu - Double Chance - home win or draw

Shimizu S-Pulse have found something of a bogey team in Kawasaki Frontale in the J-League in recent years. The two teams have played on 11 occasions since 2018, and Kawasaki Frontale have been unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Kawasaki Todoroki Stadium could be a really difficult one for Tadahiro Akiba & co.

Machida v Avispa - Win / Draw / Win - home win

It's never easy to end a losing run, but that's what's required of Avispa Fukuoka boss Do-Kyun Kim on Saturday. His side face Machida Zelvia having been beaten in each of their last 5 J-League outings.

Tokyo Verdy v Albirex - Double Chance - home win or draw

Following your favourite footy team year after year can be draining, and Albirex Niigata’s dogged old follows know that feeling especially well right now. Their side, led by T. Irie, has not won any of their last 14 J-League matches, and the clouds hardly look like parting against Tokyo Verdy 1969 at Ajinomoto Stadium on Saturday morning. Backing opposition boss H. Jofuku to add another to that list by inspiring his lads to a positive result can be backed at top odds of 1.25.

Yokohama v Nagoya - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Low scoring encounters aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Yokohama have had lots of chances to test that theory this term. 24 of their side's fixtures in J-League have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will Kenta Hasegawa and his Nagoya Grampus Eight side be capable of adding some spice into this fixture on Saturday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?

Yokohama FM v Urawa Reds - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under

Urawa Reds have played out some low-scoring matches in J-League in recent weeks. There have been under 2.5 goals in every one of Maciej Skorza's side's last 6 outings and, with H. Oshima and his Yokohama F. Marinos ahead on Saturday morning, their forwards may well need to put in some additional practice in the build-up.

Shonan v Kyoto Sanga - Win / Draw / Win - away win

It's never easy to end a losing run, but that's what's required of Shonan Bellmare boss Satoshi Yamaguchi on Sunday. His side face Kyoto Sanga having failed to get anything but defeat out of their last 7 J-League games.

Albirex v Vissel Kobe - Both Teams To Score & Result -

If you like putting your money on goals and choosing a victor, then the upcoming match between Albirex Niigata and Vissel Kobe could warrant a closer look. T. Irie's side have lost 10 games this campaign in which both sides have scored. That's the highest number in J-League.
