Avispa Fukuoka v Tokyo Verdy 1969 : J-League match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sat 31st May, 06:00 BST, Level-5 stadium, Fukuoka

Avispa Fukuoka and Tokyo Verdy 1969 take on one another at the Level-5 stadium on Saturday morning, with both Do-Kyun Kim and Hiroshi Jofuku seeking a win in the J-League. Below you'll find unique stats for every major market, from team to score first to full time result, including form and historical head to head (H2H) data. Predictions are calculated from these, and the odds come directly from leading bookmakers.


Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

A tight, highly tactical defensive battle could be in store as Avispa and Tokyo Verdy go head-to-head, with almost nothing between the sides in defence, making it difficult to predict who will win. The stats do not provide any conclusive evidence in that regard, but they are pointing strongly towards there being 2 goals or fewer in the game. That's a prediction available at best priced odds of 1.36 with the bookmakers, so we've made under 2.5 goals our tip of the day on this occasion.
