Machida Zelvia v Kashima Antlers : J-League match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sat 21st Jun, 08:00 BST, Machida Athletic Stadium, Tokyo

Home advantage can be vital in the J-League, and Go Kuroda’s Machida Zelvia will have the blessing of it on Saturday morning. Toru Oniki’s Kashima Antlers are their opponents at the Machida Athletic Stadium. All stats, including an in-depth look at the form of both sides and head to head (H2H) history, will update as you explore each of the betting markets using the tabs below. Odds and, of course, our predictions will too.


Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We're suggesting there's minimal chance that this game will serve up 4 goals or more, and the odds and statistics are in line with KO's predictive algorithm on this one. Machida and Kashima haven't typically been involved in goal-fests of late, whether that be in J-League individually or in head-to-head clashes. So, in the absence of a strong favourite draw or double chance market, we're suggesting under 3.5 goals. That's available at a best price of 1.22.

We’ve listed out the 15 most likely scorelines below, along with odds from the best bookmakers. As you can see, there’s not a lot between them.
