Sun 30th Nov, 05:00 BST, Nishigaoka National Stadium, Tokyo

This preview has odds from leading bookmakers for seventeen different betting markets, alongside bespoke data that changes as you explore.

Best Tip: Both teams to score

Kawasaki may feel optimistic ahead of this fixture and, funnily enough, so might Hiroshima. The bookmakers don't think there's much between them and neither do we – there's no obvious victor in this tie. So we look to the both teams to score market, where there's far more clarity. The form stats, past head-to-head (H2H) records and bookies odds below are all pointing towards both sides scoring, and that's the bet we'd recommend you go with.
