Kashiwa Reysol vs Fagiano Okayama: Prediction for the Match on May 10, 2025
Prediction for the Japan J1 League game between penultimate league contenders Kashiwa Reysol and Fagiano Okayama, whose recent streak of lacklusterness has slipped them down the league table.
The contrast in enthusiasm between these teams is alarming, and with the hosts doubly backed by pitch familiarity, the visitors may experience a position dip if nothing is done to improve their league situation.
A preview of the game, team statistics, emerging lineups, and several betting options are available below.

The Sun Kings gifted themselves three points last week in a tight ninety-minute showdown against Shimizu S Pulse in a match that literally kept both sides on their seats. Kashiwa’s victory was a narrow slide, despite their breaking inertia. Given the chances created by the opposition and an equalising goal cancelled after the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) called out an attacking foul, under different circumstances, the story would have been different.
Kashiwa remains the team with the best defensive lineup, conceding only ten goals in fourteen league games. Also, they have held down the fort in the last four games played at the Hitachi grounds with four low-scoring games, where they won and tied two games.
The last five league games produced three wins and two stalemates for the side.

Kashiwa Reysol: Lineup
Manager of the team, Ricardo Rodriguez, looks to continue with the formation that works, the deep lying 3-4-2-1. His kite-shaped formation links the wing backs with the wingers, who involve the midfielders while creating opportunities for the target man Kakita.
🔖 Lineup: Kojima, Mitsumaru-Koga-Inukai, Diego-Yamada-Kumasaka-Kubo, Nakama-Koizumi, Kakita.
👤 Head Coach: Ricardo Rodriguez
🏠 Fagiano Okayama: Form and Statistics
Recent Form: L-D-L-L-D
Heavily tagged as underdogs against Nagoya Grampus last week, Fagiano Okayama managed to subdue the favorites to their knees in a jamlock that earned both sides one point each. The game was an improvement against the previous away 2-0 loss to Vissel Kobe, who quenched their running two-game momentum.
Okayama’s recent streak has seen them slipping off into the table’s gray area, with two points accrued in five recent games. The attacking setup needs to be redrawn as they have not scored more than a goal in their last eight league games, signifying the intense need for a tweak in the attacking instructions.
Fagiano Okayama: Lineup
Okayama’s attacking has not been great this season, and the defenses have also been subjected to humiliating situations in almost every game. Today’s formation will look like:
🔖 Predicted Lineup (3-4-2-1) Brodersen, Abe-Tatsuta-Kudo, Matsumoto-Fujita-Tabei-Kato, Esaka-Iwabuchi, Meireles
👤 Head Coach: Takashi Kiyama

Kashiwa Reysol vs Fagiano Okayama match prediction 10 MAY 2025
This season, the host is a far more quality-studded side than Okayama. It is almost impossible for Kashiwa to fumble this game, even though numerous goals are not promised. The visitors will concede early and spend the rest of the game trying to come back, to no avail.

🔥 My prediction is Under 1.5 goals at a coefficient of 2.50 odds from Bet365;
🔥 Our betting tip is a BTTS-NO at a coefficient of 1.61 odds from Betway;
🔥 Lastly, we will pick the Home win option at a coefficient of 1.97 odds with the 1xbet bookmaker
