Both Teams To Score – Yes

Shimizu S-Pulse are a very interesting team – they are the weakest home team in the league despite their incredible away performances. At the same time, they have had the most goals in their games this season and mostly at home. They are in good form right now and we expect them to score at least one goal as well as concede, due to their terrible defense.

Double Chance – Draw or Kyoto

As mentioned above, Shimizu S-Pulse are the absolute weakest team in the league at home in the current season. They have a single win in 13 games as well as 6 draws and 6 defeats. Kyoto are definitely not a great away team but given Shimizu's performances at home, we generally expect a draw in this match. It could be a slow 1:1 match or a massive 2:2 or something more as we have seen in Shimizu's games week after week. These two teams played twice this season and one match was a draw, the other was a 0:1 win for Kyoto.

Alternative Corners – Under 10

We have two teams that have among the lowest corner stats in the league individually. Overall, Kyoto have had 9 corners per game in their matches while Shimizu S-Pulse – 8.7.

Shimizu S-Pulse Preview

Shimizu S-Pulse have never been a top team and generally finish around the relegation zone or the bottom half of the table. The team has not had a perfect season this year either and they could have been much better with some wins at home. It is very odd to see a team that struggles this much at home but dominates on the road. Their goal difference at home in 13 games is 17:26.

Kyoto Preview

Kyoto are one of the new teams in the league and they have not had a perfect season either. The team is in danger of getting relegated again although they have a chance to win some points and save themselves. In this current season, a lot of teams struggle and the fight at the bottom will continue until the very end. After 24 rounds, Kyoto have a goal difference of 23:28, which means that they are among the teams with the fewest goals overall in the league.
