Yokohama F. Maroons vs Jubilo Iwata Prediction: Marinos can not risk losing this match

Yokohama F. Marinos will look to get back to winning ways as they continue in their pursuit of winning the 2022/2023 J1 League with just three matches left to be played. Meanwhile, as it is impossible for Jubilo Iwata to make it away from the relegation zone, they will look to hurt the host as they hope to deny them the league win.

Yokohama F. Maroons - favorite to win both halves

After suffering a loss to Gamba Osaka by a score of 0-2 in their most recent J1 League match, Yokohama F. Marinos won't want a repeat of their previous result here after suffering that loss. During that match, Yokohama F. Marinos had an 80 percent possession rate and 22 shots on goal, with eight of those shots hitting the target. Gamba Osaka had a total of 8 shots on goal, only 4 of which were successful. Juan Alano and Patric both scored goals for Gamba Osaka in the eighth and eightieth minutes. Their most recent score lines really do illustrate the point that the Yokohama F. Marinos backline deserves a great deal of respect, and it is important that it be given. This brings the total number of goals scored against them in those six matches to three.

Jubilo Iwata - visitors can not stop Marinos

Kashima Antlers and Jubilo Iwata played each other in their most recent J1 League match, and the game ended in a 3-3 tie. During that match, Jubilo Iwata managed 39% of the possession and had 15 shots on goal, with 4 of them finding the back of the net. Yuto Suzuki, Shota Kaneko, and Kenyu Sugimoto were the goal scorers for Jubilo Iwata in the match. The Kashima Antlers had a total of 16 shots on goal, but only six of them were on target. For the Kashima Antlers, goals were scored by Yuta Higuchi, Blessing Eleke, and Everaldo. The Jubilo Iwata defense has allowed a combined total of 18 goals to be scored against them in just their most recent six matches as a direct result of a string of somewhat subpar efforts from the defensive unit. They absolutely need to see an improvement in this undesirable aspect of their play, which is a major concern. Jubilo Iwata have not been victorious away from their home venue in any of the previous 12 league matches leading up to this contest.
