Kawasaki Frontale vs Yokohama F. Marinos Predictions and Top Betting Tips

On paper, this should be the biggest game of the season and we already have it in round one. Here are our Kawasaki Frontale vs Yokohama F. Marinos predictions.

Both Teams To Score Prediction: Yes

Our first Kawasaki Frontale vs Yokohama F. Marinos prediction is a BTTS bet. These are the former champions and the current champions, so you get the idea – two of the three strongest teams in Japan over the last few years. So, therefore, we definitely expect goals between them as it usually goes in the matches. Four of the last five games between them ended with both teams scoring goals. Both sides seem to be in good shape right now based on the recent friendlies.

Match Result Prediction: Kawasaki Frontale to Win

Kawasaki Frontale had their problems last season but they still won their game against Yokohama. They almost always beat them on their home turf and we think that there is a better chance for this result than anything else here. We cannot be sure about the forms of both teams yet but knowing they are the best overall, we expect solid performances.

Correct Score Prediction: 2:1 to Kawasaki Frontale

Our final Kawasaki Frontale vs Yokohama F. Marinos prediction will be a correct score bet. We do not think that the opening game of the season will have such a huge scoreline. Both teams will not want to start the season with a defeat and we expect a more closed type of performance. We still envision goals from both sides here and a win for Kawasaki, so the only logical answer is 2:1.

Kawasaki Frontale vs Yokohama F. Marinos: Form, Recent Games, and News

Kawasaki Frontale Preview

Everyone expected Kawasaki Frontale to be the champions for several seasons in a row but they had a terrible start last season that more or less put them out of the fight early. Of course, they picked it up in the end and still finished 2nd in the league but it was definitely not a spectacular season. They will definitely be motivated for a better campaign now and even as the runners-up, this is the biggest team in Japan.

Yokohama F. Marinos Preview

Yokohama F. Marinos had been waiting for this title for years. The team finally took advantage last season and absolutely dominated the league. They scored 70 goals in 34 games, had the best defense too, and won the title with two points ahead of the previous champion. They failed in the cup but it was probably a calculated misstep. They recently won the Super cup of Japan and will be motivated for a solid start. There are no key players missing in the predicted Kawasaki Frontale vs Yokohama F. Marinos line ups, so we should see the best football they are capable of.
