Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo vs Nagoya Grampus Prediction & Betting Tips (3 April)

Irrespective of who has been in charge, Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo home record has made for some dreadful reading in recent times, with the Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo suffering a staggering 13 defeats in the J1 League matches. This should be music to the ears of a Nagoya Grampus side that has triumphed four times in five trips at this level of late, with one of those wins.

Thrilling encounters have been few and far between at home stadium of late, with no more than a couple of goals being netted in ten of the previous 11 Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo home games in the J1 League. This has also been the case in 11 of the most recent 18 Nagoya Grampus away fixtures at this level, so supporters should brace themselves for another low-scoring clash.

Over the course of their previous 13 matches in the J1 League second-tier, Nagoya Grampus have been involved in a staggering 11 encounters in which at least one of the two goalkeepers has kept a clean sheet. Even more amazingly, perhaps, Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo boast exactly the same record, so it would come as a major surprise were both teams to find the net in this clash.
