Both teams are no longer in contention for top honors this season, so the outcome of the upcoming match will largely depend on the mindset they bring to the pitch. In the last two head-to-head encounters, the home team emerged victorious. We'll trust this trend and place our bet on the home side winning this match.
Our prediction is a victory for Cerezo Osaka with odds of 2.70
Total Goals Bet
In the last three head-to-head matches, only one team managed to score. We believe this upcoming match will follow the same pattern, and at least one team will finish with a score of zero.
Our prediction is that at least one team will not score, offering odds of 1.95.
Corner Kicks Bet
We do not anticipate a highly open and high-scoring game, so we will bet on the fact that the opponents won’t be able to produce many corner kicks.
Our prediction is a total of under 8.5 corners, with odds of 1.74.
