Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We're suggesting it's unlikely that this game will deliver 4+ goals, and the odds and stats point in the same direction as KO's predictive algorithm on this one. Kashima and Urawa Reds haven't typically served up a high volume of goals of late, whether that be in J-League individually or when going head-to-head. So, in the absence of a convincing favourite win or double chance market, we're recommending under 3.5 goals. That's available at a best price of 1.25.
