Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

It's not the news we want to be reporting, but it's all-but impossible to predict a thriller here. The stats suggest Fagiano and Kashima both are capable of keeping it tight at the back, and the odds point towards a tie with fewer than 2 goals in total as they go head-to-head. We think they're on the right track here and, in the absence of obvious outright winners to back, under 2.5 goals looks like a smart bet.
