Yokohama FC vs Vegalta Sendai tips and predictions

Vegalta Sendai to do well; deadlock beckons

There's not much between Yokohama FC and Vegalta Sendai in the J2 League. The hosts are in third place with 11 points, compared to their opponents who are in sixth place on 10 points.

This isn't a confident view but the short price for Yokohama FC has made them a terrible bet. Vegalta Sendai don't look likely to get the win but they can make a fist of this. Building on the strong rearguard performances of both sides, a goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to get carried away about.

These sides have impressed at the back. Establishing something of a fortress against recent opposition, Yokohama FC have conceded only 1 goal in their last 5 matches, while Vegalta Sendai haven't conceded even once during their most recent 3 matches.

In previous matches in this head-to-head 4 of the last 6 have ended in a draw.

Yokohama FC are justifiable favourites and it is possible they just don't give any morsels away to Vegalta Sendai. It might not stand out but the BTTS No bet would be sensible.

Yokohama FC have drawn 2 of their last 6 matches while Vegalta Sendai have drawn 6 of their last 12 matches. They shared the spoils with Tokushima last Sunday and while any draw will do, a scoreline of 0-0 cannot be written off here. To wrap this up there is nothing to like about the home or away win odds, so the draw warrants consideration. Deadlock is the pick after what looks set to be a tightly contested match-up.
