Japan defeated Germany in their 2022 World Cup championship opening Group E match with a historic victory, and they will now want to build on that achievement by earning three more points against Costa Rica. The Samurai Blue are well-positioned to go to the knockout rounds, something they have done three times before, including in 2018 when they lost to Belgium in the last minute of the Round of 16. Costa Rica national team will be looking to salvage hopes of making it out of the Group by beating Japan after being humbled by Spain in the opening round of matches in Qatar.

Ilkay Gundogan's penalty kick gave Germany the lead against the Japan national team on Wednesday in the 33rd minute. However, two substitutes helped Moriyasu's team come back, with Ritsu Doan tying the game in the 75th and Takuma Asano scoring the game-winning goal in the 83rd.

As they have in the past when it comes to moving past the group stage, Samurai Blue are in a great position to advance to the next stage of the competition.

In fact, Japan has made it to the round of 16 three times before, most recently in 2018, when they placed second in Group H before falling to Belgium in the opening round.

There is no way to understate the significance of this game, especially considering that Costa Rica National team will enter it fresh off a humiliating loss to Spain on December 1.

Japan qualified for the 2022 World Cup finals by placing second in Group B with 22 points after 10 games. This put them one point behind Saudi Arabia in the Asian qualification group. They are huge favorites to win this contest.

Costa Rica had a howler in their opening World Cup championship group match, losing by 7 goals against a magnificent Spain National team. The team will be looking to correct their wrongs heading to the second group game against Japan. They qualified after beating New Zealand in their World Cup Play-offs. They need a win here to ensure they still have hopes to qualify to the round of 16.

For the third time in a row, Los Ticos are participating in the World Cup finals. Incredibly, they made it all the way to the quarterfinals of the 2014 tournament after winning Group D over Uruguay, Italy, and England.

On December 1, La Tricolor will play Germany in their final sectional match. It is unlikely that La Tricolor will stand out in group E, but they will be determined to give their fans something to cheer about against Japan.

Bet on Japan vs Costa Rica with Coinplay

Expected Japan National Team starting XI vs Costa Rica(4-2-3-1): Gonda; Tomiyasu, Itakura, Yoshida, Nagatomo; Endo, Tanaka; Ito, Kamada, Kubo; Asano.

Expected Costa Rica starting XI vs Japan(4-2-2-2):Navas; Waston, Calvo, Duarte, Oviedo; Tejeda, Borges; Bennette, Fuller; Campbell, Contreras.

Odds heavily favor Japan National team to win this second round since it will be very difficult for the Costa Rica side to get over their humiliating 7-0 loss to Spain at such a big stage in the World Cup championship.

It is very challenging to pick anyone other than Japan as the winner of this match after their outstanding performance against Germany on Wednesday. Costa Rica should play better after losing to Spain, but we fully anticipate Japan to win the section for the second time in a row with a 2-0 score.
