Sagan Tosu vs Machida Prediction & Betting Tips (3 November)

It would be fair to say that Sagan Tosu have been struggling on their own patch of late, with eight of their previous ten J1 League fixtures ending in defeat, and they are currently on a run of four games without a goal as well. Machida had not been in great form on the road themselves prior their next match, but they had still only lost once in seven.

With 15 of the previous 21 Sagan Tosu matches at the venue in the J1 League serving up no more than a couple of goals. This has also been the case in ten of the most recent 15 top-flight fixtures featuring Machida, meaning that more of the same is expected when the two sides meet.

Over the course of their last 21 away matches in the J1 League, Machida have been involved in just five contests in which they have both scored and conceded during the same 91 minutes. What’s more, 13 of the previous 18 Sagan Tosu games at this level have seen at least one of the two sides pitch a shutout, so it would come as a surprise to see both teams score.
