Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We think it's unlikely that this fixture will have 4 goals or more, and the odds and statistics align with our predictive algorithm on this one. Iwaki and Blaublitz have rarely been involved in goal-fests of late, whether that be in J2-League individually or in their head-to-head duals. So, without a convincing favourite draw or double chance market, we're recommending under 3.5 goals. The UK's top bookies have that available at a best price of 1.18.
