Tokyo FC: Form and Statistics

Last Five Matches: LLDLW

The Gas Men from Tokyo took a win last week against the Yokohama tricolors after what seemed like a lifetime of losses. Home league performance is on the low, with a win, loss and a stalemate in the last three games. 

From the fan perspective, the 3-0 victory was a welcome development, with questions consistently asked by the loyalists who expected a different turnout this season.

The Emperor Cup home game against Zweigen Kanazawa produced a 3-0 victory to the astonishment of critics who wrote down the squad based on their league performance. 

Tokyo FC put on new colors against Yokohama FC last week, with critics asking questions on whatever was discussed during the halftime pep talk that made them score three goals in the second half after a goalless first half. 

Tokyo FC: Lineup

Team: Coach Rikizo has the ball in his court and while the fans expect him to begin showing his cards from the first half, loss in this match would only pull them toward relegation.

Players: All the defenders were on top last week against Yokohama Marinos, nullifying flanking trials from the opposition. Three players that stood out were Sato(LM), Nozawa(RM) and Nagakura(LS) whose contributions have the three goal lead at fulltime, giving Tokyo FC their first win in six weeks.

Predicted Lineup (4-4-2): Nozawa, Muroya-Oka-Doi-Nagatomo, Sato-Ko-Koizumi-Nozawa, Nagakura-Nakagawa.

Head Coach: Rikizo Matsuhashi

Out: No injury concern

Yokohama FC: Form and Statistics

Last Five Matches: WDLLL

The Fulies from Yokohama are on a decline, with three consecutive losses completely forcing them down the table. This season, they are the second worst team so far, with thirteen losses in twenty-two games.

In the last six weeks, they have not scored more than a goal, sometimes even going goalless - as they have in the past two weeks. On the road, they have consistently scored in the last three games with the goals producing different outcomes. They lost to Urawa Reds (2-1) and Kawasaki Frontale (2-1), but won against Shonan Bellmare (1-0).

Yokohama FC: Lineup

Team: It is quite concerning that Yokohama FC are one of the worst teams so far. Goals win games , and with the poor rendition shown so far, it is crystal clear that work is needed in the scoring department of the team. Is Coach Matsuhashi's job at stake? How long will the management give him to adjust and make changes?

Players: Losiness in front of goal, losing the ball even when not under duress and a host of other factors have influenced the players gameplay. Can Lukian do something different today? Will Inoue be a positive influence? 

Predicted Lineup (4-3-3): Megiolaro,Yamazaki-Nduka-Fukumori, Yamame-Lara-Yamada-Shimbo, Suzuki-Komai,Lukian

Head Coach: Shuhei Yomoda

Out: Nil

Tokyo FC vs Yokohama FC Match Prediction 28 JUNE 2025

From a statistical perspective, Tokyo FC has the upper hand. However, the visitors have been known to cause trouble from time to time. This is not a game that will produce goals - still, we push our bias behind the hosts, who showed excellence last week.

Below are my best predictions:

- My prediction is a BTTS-NO, with heavy bias for Tokyo FC to be the only scoring side at a coefficient of 1.811 odds from 1xbet.

- Our betting tip will be the Under 1.5 goals at 2.60 odds from Betway.

- Lastly, I will pick the Home Full Time Win option as my final choice at the coefficient of 2.30 odds from the Bet365 bookmaker.
