General match analysis

Tokyo have a slightly better recent points record: 1.4 points per game over the last five matches compared with Shimizu S-Pulse’s 1.2, while scoring 11 goals in that period versus just 3 for the hosts. Shimizu are yet to score at home despite averaging 12 shots and an xG of 1.42, whereas Tokyo average 2 goals per away game and have failed to score in none of their matches. The visitors also create more chances, averaging 16 compared with 12, and their xG stands at 1.61, suggesting greater attacking potential. However, neither defense looks reliable, with Shimizu conceding an average of 1 goal at home and Tokyo 2 away, while neither team has kept a clean sheet. Tokyo’s superior chance quality and significantly greater efficiency support an away win, although the high draw probability is justified by their only away match so far ending in a share of the points.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

The BTTS - Yes pick is primarily supported by the visitors’ defensive profile: they have failed to keep a clean sheet in every match and concede an average of 2.0 goals. Tokyo score an average of 2.0 goals per game, have netted 11 goals in their last five matches and record an xG of 1.56, while Shimizu have allowed opponents an xG of 1.66 over this period. The hosts average 15.5 shots, generate an xG of 1.64 and face a team that has conceded an average of 1.6 goals in its last five appearances. However, the signal is not unequivocal, as Shimizu have scored only 3 goals in their last five matches and their BTTS rate during this period is just 20%. Despite this recent drop in finishing efficiency, Tokyo’s season-long BTTS rate of 100% and the high attacking quality of both sides provide slight support for Goal/Goal.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

The strongest signal is for Over 1.5 goals, as both teams have surpassed this line in 100% of their league matches so far. Tokyo have scored an average of 2.2 goals in their last five games, while Shimizu have conceded 1.2 goals during this period and allowed opponents an xG of 1.66. The hosts have shown weaker recent finishing, scoring just 0.6 goals per game in their last five outings, but their average xG stands at 1.45, while Tokyo have conceded 1.6 goals per match over the same period. The total goals projection of 2.90 also remains close to the league's high average of 3.2, making at least two goals clearly more likely than a result featuring no more than one goal.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The strongest scenario is a draw at half-time followed by a Tokyo win at full-time, as the visitors were level at the break in 60% of their last five matches, compared with just 40% for the hosts. During this period, Tokyo averaged 1.0 goal before half-time, compared with Shimizu’s 0.2, and recorded a half-time goal difference of +2 versus -1 for their opponents. After the break, the visitors score an average of 1.2 goals per match, while Shimizu score only 0.4 and have lost the second half in 60% of their recent games. Tokyo’s advantage is also evident in their current attacking form: they have averaged 2.2 goals scored across their last five matches, compared with 0.6 for the hosts. Although the two teams’ xG figures are similar—1.64 for Shimizu and 1.61 for Tokyo—the hosts have recently conceded an average of 1.2 goals, which supports the match’s balanced opening ultimately turning in the visitors’ favor.
