Tokyo Verdy vs Kashiwa Reysol: Prediction for the Match on June 15, 2025

Prediction for the J1 League game between Tokyo Verdy and Kashiwa Reysol, the Hitachi Sun Kings. Ajinomoto Stadium would again serve as the venue for this highly anticipated encounter, heavily laced with tensions and gossip from the local tabloids.

This will be the third encounter between these teams in the past two weeks with Kashiwa Reysol successfully knocking the Greens off the League Cup tournament.

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

Tokyo Verdy: Form and Statistics

Last Five Matches: WLLWD

The Tokyo Greens failed to create a path past the Hitachi Sun Kings in the domestic League Cup competition, with a devastating 5-1 scoreline on aggregate (2-1, 3-0).

Their unbeaten brace held before the Cup break looks threatened as Kashiwa Reysol would be sure to provide strict resistance. 

At home, they have struggled past the last three games to win twice (2-0 v Yokohama and 1-0 v Kyoto Sanga)

The Emperor’s Cup swung by with a swift 3-1 domination over junior-tiered side Tochigi SC. The Greens have their hands full, with the futuristic threat against Cerezo blaring in their faces. 

Tokyo Verdy: Lineup

Team: Tokyo Verdy have been disappointing this season, losing matches in which they were even tagged as favorites. The team has not scored more than two goals in the last six games - implying the need for work to be done in the goal-scoring department.

Players: Majority of the team’s frontal assault spawns in the midfield. Yamami and Kumatoriya also stood out big-time last week, providing quality despite heavy resistance from the challengers.

Predicted Lineup(5-4-1): Nagasawa, Miyahara-Suzuki-Tsunashima-Inami-Matsuhashi, Fukuda-Yamami-Yamamoto-Kimatoriya, Shirai

Head Coach: Hiroshi Jofuku

Out: Nil

Kashiwa Reysol: Form and Statistics

Last Five Matches: WWLDL

Kashiwa Reysol picked two wins, two losses and one stalemate from the last five games played in the league. Their League Cup exhibition was a happy affair for the side who won both legs. However Coach Rodriguez’s tactical replacement of the starting XI in the Emperor’s Cup seemed to backfire as they fell 2-0 to Toyo University, ending their journey briefly. 

As an overview, they slipped off their usual form in the last three games, losing 3-0 to Machida Zelvia and 3-1 to Vissel Kobe. Kashiwa Reysol has been unpredictable in the last three games, with one win, one stalemate and one loss. 

Kashiwa Reysol: Lineup

Team: The Hitachi Sun Kings gradually declined in pitch performance towards the break, losing two games after winning three games.

Players: The attacking players have taken the back seat in recent games, slumping in front of goal. Mao Hosoya is expected to return to the lineup and 

Predicted Lineup (3-4-2-1): Kojima, Harada-Koga-Tanaka, Kubo-Shirai-Yamada-Koyamatsu, Tezuka-Hosoya- Kakita

Head Coach: Ricardo Rodriguez

We know we will have lots of chances in this game, but it depends on the acumen of the visitors to either grant themselves victory, or maintain a balance.
