This Saturday a match between Yokohama F. Marinos and Tokyo Verdy will take place within the Japanese J1 League.
Yokohama F. Marinos again found themselves in the spotlight after their last match against Avispa on June 26th. The match ended 2:1 in favour of Avispa despite Yokohama's 73% dominance in possession. After this defeat, Yokohama F. Marinos are placed 12th in the J1 League standings. Out of 19 matches, they have won 7, lost 7, and drawn 5 times. Avispa moved up to the 8th position with 32 points from 20 games. In the last 5 games, Yokohama F. Marinos have secured 2 wins and faced 3 losses.
On June 26th, Tokyo Verdy lost 0:3 to Iwate. Following this match, Tokyo Verdy sits 11th in the standings with 27 points, having 6 wins, 5 losses, and 9 draws. The team has scored 28 goals and conceded 33, indicating significant defensive issues that were apparent in their recent game. Jubilo Iwata is currently in 13th place with 23 points.
Given that both teams have been shaky at the back and inconsistent in their play, but have been scoring frequently in recent matches, I am backing a total over 2.5 goals.
