Kashima Antlers vs Nagoya Grampus: Top Free Betting Tips

Kashima Antlers had the best start out of all teams in the league and have a great opportunity to take over the league with a win here.

Total Goals – Under 2.5

These two teams have had a very competitive history and it will be interesting which one will take the three points here. Both sides had a bunch of goals in their games to date but we expect a more difficult fixture here and another under 2.5. All five of their latest head-to-head games ended with less than 2.5 goals and despite their success this season in scoring, we expect the same.

Match Result – Nagoya Grampus

Nagoya Grampus started the season in a disappointing way and it is obvious why Kashima are the favorite. However, we have a lot of history between these two teams and Nagoya have always been the much better team. They played four times last season and Nagoya won three of those matches and were quite dominant too. Kashima also lost two games at home already, so we think there might be an upset from the visitors here.

Alternative Corners – Over 8

Kashima Antlers and Nagoya Grampus have unique corner stats and they are among the teams that take the most in the league. While Kashima's 5.63 corners per game on average are a more traditional number, Nagoya Grampus took an average of 8.20 corners in their last five games and 10.50 in their away games alone.

Kashima Antlers Preview

Kashima Antlers played an incredible season last year and fell four points short from the AFC Champions League qualifying spots. This season, they started better than all other teams in the league and have even played two games less than the other title competitors. The team has an incredible opportunity to create a lead at the top but they need to continue with the wins.

Nagoya Grampus Preview

Nagoya Grampus finished last season exactly below Kashima at 5th place, which was a great achievement for such a smaller team. This season, however, has not started in the best way and they need to find improvements on all ends. They are one of the lowest-scoring teams to date and this has been a serious problem.
