The sensation of a new season parks up controversies as Kawasaki Frontale launches the 2023 J1 League saga against Yokohama F. Marinos. The previous season saw both teams struggle to attain league dominance as they both sat on top of the league with 66 points for Kawasaki Frontale and 68 points for Yokohama F.Marinos. One of the highlights was the record signing of Kaoru Mitoma from Kawasaki Frontale to Brighton and Hove Albion for £4.5m. We wonder how this game will play out.

Without mincing words, Kawasaki Frontale is an excellent team. Last season, they finished in second place due to a couple of matches where they tied points instead of sealing victories. Their mode of attack, flank oppression and midfield conservation have earned the administration a whole lot of respect from the Japanese federation.
With Kaoru Mitoma gone from the squad, the squad seeks a viable substitute and would look into the depth of the reserves for an interim replacement.
Morale is very high in the home camp and we anticipate the best from this team, especially as they begin the league on very familiar grounds.
Yokohama F.Marinos FC
Winners of the 2022 Japanese J1 League title, Yokohama F.Marinos face rival squad Kawasaki Frontale as they begin a new campaign. Last Season, they showed an incredible resolve to lift the silverware and they succeeded.
This Season, we bet that they would be given a run for their money as we see a lot of team reshuffling amongst the players, teams, and administration.
Amongst a few are Kashwei Ishii, Kento Hashimoto, Boniface Nduka, and Yuri Lara. A win is expected from this game and the fans seek to do everything to maximize points here.

Kawasaki Frontale seems more consistent and would try to secure maximum points here. They would seek to bolster team shooting since the midfield has more choices up front. It may not be too impulsive to predict a Draw at Halftime at 1.70 odds (1xbet)
