Best Tip: Both teams to score

Analysing all relevant statistics, including historical head-to-head (H2H) data, we fully expect this fixture to deliver both joy and misery to both sets of fans. We predict both Iwaki and V-V Nagasaki to find the back of the net during the 90 mins, but the ultimate winner of the game seems less clear. Bookmaker's odds also point towards a both teams to score bet, and that looks a wise bet to us.
