Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

It would probably be a little strong to say that we expect Ricardo Soares and Tadahiro Akiba to batten down the hatches here, but we're certainly not expecting a deluge of goals as Kashiwa and Shimizu go head-to-head. The stats belowimply under 2.5 goals (i.e. 2 goals of fewer in total), and we reckon it's likely to go that way too. With best odds of 1.65 available on under 2.5 goals and neither side looking like strong favourites to win, that's the bet we're recommending.
