General match analysis
Urawa Reds have won 4 of their last 5 matches, while Nagoya Grampus have won 3, although the hosts remain unbeaten during this period. Away from home, Urawa have averaged 3.5 goals scored and 1 conceded, while Nagoya scored and conceded 3 goals in their only home match so far. The visitors are more clinical in front of goal: their away conversion rate is 21%, compared with Nagoya’s 12% at home, despite the hosts averaging more attempts, 26 to 16.5. However, Nagoya create good chances, posting a home xG of 2.77 compared with Urawa’s away xG of 2.2, so they have a genuine chance of finding the net. The visitors’ defensive edge is decisive: their away xG against stands at 1.22, compared with 2.22 for the hosts at home, though the small number of matches played calls for caution.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Nagoya have scored in each of their last 5 matches, and all of those games featured goals from both teams. Over that period, the hosts averaged 2.4 goals scored and 1.4 conceded, while Urawa averaged 2.2 scored and 1.4 conceded per match. Their attacking potential is reflected in average xG figures of 1.81 for Nagoya and 1.95 for Urawa, increasing the likelihood that both sides will create scoring chances. However, caution is warranted: Urawa had BTTS in only 40% of their last 5 matches and kept a clean sheet in 50% of their cup games. Even so, Nagoya’s consistent scoring record and the 23 goals scored by the two teams combined across their respective last 5 matches support a BTTS - Yes pick.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
Nagoya’s last 5 matches averaged 3.8 goals, while Urawa’s averaged 3.6; both teams went over the 2.5-goal line in 80% of those games. Nagoya scored an average of 2.4 goals during this period and Urawa 2.2, although their xG figures were lower, at 1.81 and 1.95 respectively. This supports a forecast of around 3.35 goals, but calls for caution with higher lines. The strongest pick is Over 1.5 goals: it requires just two goals and is better supported by the data than Over 2.5 or Over 3.5. Nagoya’s zero season averages are inconsistent with its record of 6 goals scored, so I place greater weight on its last 5 matches.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
A draw at half-time and a Urawa win is the most likely scenario: the visitors were level at the break in 4 of their last 5 matches and won 4 of those 5 games. They won more often after the break than Nagoya, doing so in 4 of 5 matches compared with 2 of 5, and averaged 1.4 goals against the hosts’ 1.0. However, this pick is not without risk, as Nagoya led at the break in 3 of its last 5 matches and scored an average of 2.4 goals per game in that period, slightly more than Urawa (2.2). In the two cup matches included in the data, Urawa led at half-time on both occasions and averaged 3.5 goals, so an away lead at the break remains a significant alternative. Nagoya’s zero cup statistics should not be treated as evidence of a weak attack, particularly given its 3 wins in the last 5 matches.
