Yokohama FC vs Renofa Yamaguchi tips and predictions

Yokohama FC can dominate Renofa Yamaguchi but no great value in odds

There are 14 points separating these two J2 League sides as third place Yokohama FC get set to host 18th place Renofa Yamaguchi.

The odds-on for the home side might not be for everyone but Renofa Yamaguchi are unlikely to be contemplating any thoughts of victory.

The momentum is with Yokohama FC. Their recent performances support that. The hosts have secured 7 home wins from their last 9 games. Having less success than expected the travelling side has failed to deliver at times. They've lost 5 of their recent 6 matches on the road. It looks like another loss for them here.

The home side's defence could be the key to victory for them. Reassuringly they've kept things tight recently since they have conceded no more than once in 12 of their last 14 games. While the hosts have rolled with the punches, their opponents here have really had their resistance challenged. Renofa Yamaguchi have conceded at least once in all of their last 10 assignments. It's unlikely they'll have the wherewithal to keep the hosts out.

The head-to-head looks good for the hosts. Yokohama FC have won 6 of the last 8 fixtures between the two teams.

Yokohama FC are the clear favourites but things could get interesting if Renofa Yamaguchi can make a match of it. It isn't the best bet among today's football but Yes BTTS bet is the hesitant side bet.
