The answer is in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Ventforet Kofu
JapanCurrent form
Kofu plays in the J-2 League, where so far it occupies only 12th place in the standings. In eight matches, the team managed to score 10 points and is located strictly between the relegation zone and the playoff zone. It is worth noting that after a weak start, the hosts still came to their senses and won the last two matches. Shinji Otsuki's team managed to beat Sapporo (1-0) and Iwaki (1-0) in the last two rounds, and in the first round of the league cup, another club from the second league, Fujiyoda FC (2-1), passed.

Machida Zelvia
JapanCurrent form
Matida Zelvia was a newcomer to the top division last season, but this did not prevent the guests from immediately joining the fight for medals. As a result, the team finished the season in third place, and in 2025, the wards of Go Kuroda intend to perform even worse. The club has already managed to come out on top, but the second Hiroshima is lagging behind only in additional indicators. In recent rounds, the team from Machida managed to score minimal victories over Albirex Niigata (1-0) and Gamba Osaka (1-0), and also drew with Fukuoka (2-2) and Kawasaki (2-2).

1.67Tip and bets
The guests are naturally considered the clear favorite of this confrontation. The club from Matida is one of the leaders of the elite division and is in excellent shape, having brought the unbeaten streak to six matches. The hosts have won their last three matches, but in the second league the level of resistance is much lower, and Kofu's performance at the beginning of the season was not so impressive. We believe that the difference in class will do its job, and Matida Zelvia will pass on.
Our betting tip is that Matida Zelvia will win in 1.75
Bet on the total
The owners will certainly rely on defense, which may well yield some results. Kofu has conceded only one goal in the last three matches, so it won't be easy for the visitors. We do not think that Matida Zelvia will leave the field without scoring goals, but you definitely should not expect a scoring extravaganza here.
Our betting tip is a total of less than 2.5 goals in 1.65
Betting on corners
We believe that the opponents will rely on defense, so we should not expect a large number of flank attacks. A defensive style of play is unlikely to lead to a large number of corners.
Our betting tip is a total of less than 9.5 corners in 1.80
