Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

A tight, highly tactical defensive battle could be in store as Ventforet and Tokushima go head-to-head, with hardly anything between the players in terms of who might win. The stats don't give us any proper confidence in that regard, but they are pointing strongly towards there being 2 goals or fewer in the fixture. That's a prediction available at best priced odds of 1.44 with the bookmakers, so we've made under 2.5 goals our tip of the day on this one.
