Kawasaki Frontale vs Yokohama FC Prediction: Kawasaki Strikers Need To Do What They Are Paid For

Kawasaki Frontale vs Yokohama FC: Prediction for the Match on May 14, 2025

Prediction for the J1 League game between AFC returnees Kawasaki Frontale and bottom fraterniser Yokohama FC, ahead of the previously postponed round 14 game taking place at the Todoroki Athletics Stadium on the 14th May 2025.

The two sides are currently threatened by relegation and while Kawasaki will be eager to be owners of the points at full-time, Yokohama FC will not make the job easy, as they have shown in their recent matches, irrespective of the eventual outcomes.

A preview of the game team statistics, emerging lineup, and several betting options are available below.

Kawasaki Frontale: Form and Statistics

Last Five Matches: DDLDL

For the Fujitsu side, a win has been scace with the last six league games producing four stalemates and two losses. Despite energy vested against the league leaders last week, all hopes for redemption against Kashima Antlers was dashed into pieces in the 65th minute of the second half after the first half concluded with one goal apiece. Kawasaki should have sealed that game in the first half, but their numerous misses cost them all points.

Their quality is undeniable and we know that they won't stay in the mud for long if they convert their scoring chances into goals.

Kawasaki Frontale: Lineup

Lineup Marcinho wasted lots of chances against Kashima last week. While much is expected from him, Erison needs to also step up if they are to become AFC contenders next season.

Ozeki’s form is doubtful, seeing how he was subbed off due to injury. Hinata Yamaguchi will be expected to fill his shoes.

Coach Hasebe tactics please his fans, it remains his players to step up and do what they're paid for.

🔖 Predicted Lineup(4-2-3-1): Yamaguchi, Wermeskerken-Takai-Maruyama-Sasaki, Kawahara-Yamamoto, Ito-Ozeki-Marcinho,Erison

👤 Head Coach: Shigetoshi Hasebe

⛔ Out: Ozeki (doubtful)

Yokohama FC: Form and Statistics

Last Five Matches: DLLLW

Yokohama spawned a surprising 1-0 win against Avispa Fukuoka last week in a somewhat uneventful game. The first half saw both sides testing their strengths and weighing options upfront. However, they converted a second-half chance to become eventual winners to the dismay of the overconfident visitors who were complacent and second-best in all aspects of the contest.

Yokohama FC: Lineup

Not much has been shown from S.Yomoda this season, with four wins and eight losses in fifteen matches. To make matters worse, his team has flunked in the goal-scoring quarters, registering only nine goals. Still, the lineup remains:

🔖 Predicted Lineup (3-4-2-1): Ichikawa, Yamazaki-Nduka-Ito, Shimbo-Komai-Lara-Murata, Yamada-Muroi, Sakuragawa

👤 Head Coach: Shuhei Yomoda
