Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

We are tipping a relatively tight affair here and, as such, we predict under 2.5 goals. For those unfamiliar with that term, this simply means that 2 goals or fewer will be scored in total as Tokyo and Vissel Kobe go head-to-head. Good performances all round will be required to deliver us a winner, but we have reason to trust both sides to deliver precisely that. The statistics and the odds below suggest it's a sound bet too.
