Kawasaki Frontale vs Kashima Antlers Predictions


Recent results and previous encounters suggest a strong likelihood of a high-scoring contest on Saturday. I'm taking a chance on a BTTS and over 2.5 goals double at Uvance Todoroki Stadium.

Stats


  • Kawasaki Frontale have seen BTTS & over 2.5 goals in 6 of their last 8 matches
  • Kawasaki Frontale have seen BTTS & over 2.5 goals in 6 of their last 7 home matches
  • Kashima Antlers have seen BTTS & over 2.5 goals in 5 of their last 6 matches against Kawasaki Frontale
  • Kashima Antlers have seen BTTS & over 2.5 goals in 4 of their last 7 matches (J1L)

Head to Head


Since 2016, Kawasaki Frontale and Kashima Antlers have met 35 times. Frontale scored 19 victories, Kashima picked up nine wins, while seven games finished level. 

All but two of their 13 previous encounters finished with a minimum of three goals scored. Eleven of those matches also saw both teams scoring. 

Kawasaki Frontale Form


Kawasaki return to the Uvance Todoroki Stadium after a disappointing 1-0 defeat at Tokyo Verdy last weekend. Daiki Fukazawa's first-half strike proved the difference-maker in a tight contest at Ajinomoto Stadium.

Having enjoyed an impressive seven-game unbeaten run, Shigetoshi Hasebe's side have now slipped to defeat in two of their last three fixtures. Kawasaki not find themselves sixth in the J1L, six points behind Kashima coming into Saturday's matchup.

Frequently involved in high-scoring contests, an average of 3.4 goals per game were scored in Frontale's 14 most recent fixtures. Ten of those games also finished with BTTS. 

Kawasaki Frontale Team News


Head coach Hasebe is likely to make at least one alteration to his first XI this weekend. Marcinho is set to miss out after he was forced off just 13 minutes into last week's loss against Tokyo.

Brazilian forward Erison and goalkeeper Geun-hyeong Lee remain unavailable for selection. 

Kashima Antlers Form


Kashima Antlers come into Saturday's J1L contest now winless in three matches after a shock 2-1 home reversal against Okayama last week. Toru Oniki's men have lost both of their last two J1L matches after a 1-1 draw with Hiroshima three weeks ago. 

A marked dip in performance levels over the past month has seen the Antlers lose three of their last six J1L games, including a 3-1 road loss at Yokohama in June. 

Despite their recent downturn in form, the Perennial Winners remain top of the division, albeit on goal difference only from nearest rivals Kashiwa Reysol. 

Kashima Antlers Team News


Head coach Oniki could make some alterations as Kashima look to break their three-game winless run this weekend. Shuhei Mizoguchi and Yuta Higuchi are among those likely to earn a recall to the first XI.

Injured quintet Yoshihiro Shimoda, Homare Tokuda, Shu Morooka, Ikuma Sekigawa and Koki Anzai are again expected to miss out. 

Verdict

Goals should be expected in what has so often proved a high-scoring encounter. I'm banking on BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored on Saturday.
