Kyoto vs Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo Prediction & Betting Tips (15 June)

Irrespective of who has been in charge, Kyoto home record has made for some dreadful reading in recent times, with the Kyoto suffering a staggering 15 defeats in the J1 League matches. This should be music to the ears of a Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo side that has triumphed four times in five trips at this level of late, with one of those wins.

Goals tend to be in short supply when Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo come calling in the J1 League, with under 2.5 being served up in 12 of their previous 14 away matches, including in each of the last six. Given that six of the most recent eight Kyoto games at this level have also fallen into this low-scoring category, a thriller does not appear to be on the cards.

Over the course of their previous 14 matches in the J1 League second-tier, Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo have been involved in a staggering 12 encounters in which at least one of the two goalkeepers has kept a clean sheet. Even more amazingly, perhaps, Kyoto boast exactly the same record, so it would come as a major surprise were both teams to find the net in this clash.
