Yokohama FC vs Gamba Osaka Prediction: Results Highly Likely To Be A Tie

Gamba visits Yokohama FC next in the Japanese J1 faceoff. While the hosts in the seventeenth place are in direct danger of relegation, the guests are also situated close to the bottom, in the fourteenth spot. The last 9 games record shows Yokohama FC winning once, Gamba Osaka four times, and four draws. Many factors of in-game stretch and pitch constraints may determine the outcome of this duel. A tie is predicted in this game, but if not, the Osaka side is recommended for a win.

Gamba Osaka (14th)

Last Five Games: W-W-W-W-L

Impressively compiling twelve games in five games, the Black and Blues still pull their weight from the fourteenth spot where they still languish after a miraculous four-game winning fluke. Since they lost to Yokohama F. Marinos, they have won every single game in the league - excluding the League and the Emperor’s Cup games. They are tipped as the team to overcome this contest as they have a very high zeal and the team seems to have recovered its track. The midfield expects Keisuke Kurokawa to continue his impressive form as he did against Kashima Antlers where they should have scored more than two goals.
