Yokohama Marinos is in a good mood. A few days ago, the team won 1-0 against Chinese Shanghai Shenhua in the Asian Champions League.
The coach was replaced during the offseason. The mentor was the English specialist Steve Holland. The club's management appointed him, of course, with high expectations for the upcoming season, because last year's ninth place could be called a disaster. The players played four matches under the new coach. In the first friendly game, there was a defeat against Oita (0:1). Then there were victories over Kumamoto (3:2) and Kofu (2:1), and then the aforementioned triumph in the AFC Champions League.

According to the results of 2024, Albirex did not even get into the top 15, taking a modest 16th place. We managed to beat the relegation zone by only four points. Like the upcoming opponent, the club's management was not satisfied with the results, and two weeks ago, on February 1, Daisuke Kimori became the team's helmsman. The upcoming match will be the first under the new coach, so it will be interesting to see what tactics the coaching staff will choose to play against a very difficult opponent.

1.70Tip and bets
Both teams will strive to show their best in front of their new coaches. At the same time, the owners have an advantage. The team has already played four matches with the new coach, and the coach knows the strengths and weaknesses of the players. Plus, the team did not stand idle in 2025 like the upcoming opponent, and Yokohama Marinos will have to play on their own field. We believe that all these factors will allow the hosts to win in the first round of the Japanese championship.
Our forecast is that Yokohama Marinos will win with a coefficient of 2.07
Bet on the total
Yokohama Marinos is playing outdoor soccer on its field. Albirex will have no choice but to accept these terms of the game. Considering this point, we come to the conclusion that the game will be attacking and both the hosts and the guests will be able to distinguish themselves in it. Moreover, in three of the last five face-to-face matches at the Nissan Stadium, this bet went down quietly.
Our forecast is that both will score with a coefficient of 1.54
Betting on corners
Yokohama Marinos has an average of 6.4 corners, and Albirex Niagata has 5.3. Adding these two figures together, we get the leading total in corners. We will place another bet on him.
Our forecast is a total of more than 8.5 corners with a coefficient of 1.75
