Best Tip: Both teams to score

Having studied all relevant stats, including historical head-to-head (H2H) data, we predict this tie will deliver both happiness and sadness to each set of supporters. We expect both Albirex and Kashima to find the back of the net during the 90 mins, but the ultimate winner of the match seems less clear. The odds point towards a both teams to score bet, and that's our recommendation.
