Command Analysis

Kamatamare Sanuki

Current form
Kamatamar is only 16th out of 20 in the Japanese third league and can’t even get into the middle of the standings. The team will never finish higher than 15th place, so they can just end the season without any goals. In the last four rounds, the team managed to earn only two points, drawing with Nara Club (2:2) and Wanraura (3:3). In their last home matches, the Marugame club lost to Tegewahara Miazaki (0:4) and Girawanzu Kitakuyushi (1:2).
Disqualifications and injuries
The hosts have no problems with their line-up before the penultimate round.
Interesting trends for betting
- The team has not won a single game in its last four matches.
- The hosts suffered three defeats in a row at home
Tentative lineup: Imamura - Munechika, Okuda, Hasegawa - Yoshida, Iwamoto, Maekawa, Uchida - Iwagishi, Mori - Niwa

Imabari FC

Current form
Imabari has had a very strong season and has already secured a spot in the J2 League. They were unable to compete for first place with Omiya, but no one can take second place away from the visitors. The team is nine points ahead of third-placed Toyama, a deficit that cannot be made up in two rounds. Imabari secured second place after beating Ryukyu (2:1) and Tottori (5:0) in the last two rounds.
Disqualifications and injuries
The visitors have no problems with their line-up before the penultimate round.
Interesting trends for betting
- The team has won only one of its last five away matches.
- The visitors have won four of their last five head-to-head matches.
Tentative lineup: Serantes - Ichihara, Fukumori, Kato - Yuba, Moschion, Arai, Kondo - Kato, Yokoyama - Indio

1.64Tip and bets
The opponents have been actively attacking lately, so the teams will probably have a productive face-to-face match. The result is no longer putting pressure on the opponents, so there is no point in sitting in defense. We believe that the opponents will put on a real show for the fans and suggest betting on the total over.
Our prediction is total over 2.5 goals for 1.95
Bet on the outcome
Both teams have no goals in the current championship, but the visitors will certainly try to finish the season in the third league on a high note, proving their superiority over the teams from this division. In terms of composition, Kamatamar is significantly inferior to its opponent and is unlikely to be able to compete. It is worth betting on the victory of the favorite in this confrontation.
Our forecast is victory for Imabari in 1.92
Bet on the first half
Recently, the visitors have not been particularly successful in the first half and have scored most of their goals in the second half. We believe that the hosts will have enough strength to fight off the opponent attacks in the first half.
Our prediction is a draw in the first half at 2.15
