We are counting on Consadole Sapporo to pull off a win here. They have a fine home record heading into this one. Two of their past four home league matches have ended in victories.
Albirex Niigata, on the other hand, are currently struggling for form on the road. They haven’t won any of their last seven away league matches. Four of those matches ended in defeats as well.
We expect goals in this match. In each of Consadole Sapporo’s last seven home matches, there have been more than 2.5 goals scored. Also, three of Niigata’s past six league matches have ended with over 2.5 goals.
In addition, the last two h2h meetings between these two have had over 2.5 goals. By the looks of things, a high-scoring affair is expected this time out.
Neither of these two teams has had a solid defensive line in recent weeks. The hosts have failed to keep clean sheets in each of their past sixteen league matches. While the visitors also failed to keep a clean sheet in four of their last five away league matches.
Thus, the chances are quite high for goals to come from either end of the pitch.
Consadole Sapporo have a fine home record heading into the match. They have won two of their past four home league matches. Furthermore, Albirex Niigata has had a poor away record going into the match.
A victory for Consadole Sapporo at 1.83 odds will be our main betting pick here considering all the observations.
For the second tip, over 2.5 goals and BTTS at 1.80 odds seems very promising. Considering both teams recent goal involvement in their matches and their past results.
