Sagan Tosu

Form: WLDDL

Sagan Tosu went into last weekend's match against Machida Zelvia on the back of a 12-match winless run in the league (L9, D3). However, it was all smiles at the end of the day for the home team, who secured a vital 2-1 home victory to halt their winless run, and this is all thanks to Tsubasa Terayama's late strike.

With nothing to play for as they are anchored at the bottom of the table with relegation to the second division imminent with just three games left to spare, their momentum is fueled by pride to bid the season farewell on a high.

Yokohama F. Marinos

Form: DDLLL

Yokohama F. Marinos will be extremely frustrated with how their J1 League campaign has turned out this season, especially as they sit in 15th place in the table with 43 points accumulated from 34 games.

During the week, John Hutchinson's team desperately resorted to an all-out assault in their match against Buriram United in the AFC Champions League as they secured a commanding 5-0 win at the Nissan Stadium. This was consolation for their poor form in the domestic league, where a goalless draw against the Urawa Red Diamonds last time out extended their winless run to six games (L4, D2).

Expert Betting Tips

Sagan Tosu have struggled in this fixture, winning just one of their last 13 encounters (L7, D5), and they could find it challenging to secure a favorable outcome in front of their home crowd. 

Yokohama F. Marinos, on the other hand, have been performing poorly lately in the league, but they remain the better side on paper compared to their opponents, and we anticipate them to return to winning ways and halt their six-match winless run in the league by supporting them in the full-time market.
