🏠Urawa Reds: Form and Statistics
Last Five Matches: LDWLW
Fresh air returned to the home camp last week, as the Reds painted the walls of the Saitama camp red in the 4-1 pummelling against the visitors from the Hiratsuka Kyujo, Shonan Bellmare - who prior to the game were expectant of a befitting contest.
At home, they have pushed themselves hard in the last four games, staying unbeaten with three wins and one stalemate. Urawa’s home prestige is rock-solid, as they consistently refuse to concede, unless they score.
The ravenous Reds played as revenants last week, bottling up the 3-2 disappointment against Tokyo as a ramp for the 4-1 success against Shonan. They will be expected to go all out against the Fukuoka hornets, who have been the stronger side in recent contests.
Goals have been Urawa’s trademark since their return from the Club World Cup, with six goals in two matches.
🏁 Urawa Reds: Lineup
Team: Marciej Skorza exposed something the Urawa fans have not seen in a while last week against Shonan, scoring two goals in each half. The team was united, and in sync as they pushed hard from the initial whistle blow till the final moments.
Players: Ryoma Watanabe’s early subbing was initially disturbing for the fans, but the whole player rotation eventually played out well. Thiago Santana, who played for only thirteen minutes eventually got crowned most valuable player of the game, which was very surprising. Defender Hoiibraten played naturally in the attacking position, even reflecting on the scoreboard.
🔖 Predicted Lineup (4-2-3-1): Nishikawa, Ogiwara-Hoibraten-Boza-Ishihara, Gustafson-Yasui, Savio-Watanabe-Kaneko, Komori
👤 Head Coach: Marciej Skorza
⛔ Out: Nil
✈️ Avispa Fukuoka: Form and Statistics
Last Five Matches: DWWDD
The Fukuoka Hornets have stubbornly held their flags through the last five games, refusing to be underdogs despite reports by the books tipping them as the side liable for defeat.
Last week’s home struggle against the Kyoto Purples was bold, coming from behind in what looked like a 2-0 loss to tip leverage in the final two minutes of second half injury time - utmost to the despair of the apparent victors, who were too fatigued to recalibrate their approach.
They have shown strength against Urawa in recent pairings, and although they are tipped as the side who will lose, this will not be the first time, they would enter a contest with expectations of loss, despite them proving that every once in a while, David defeats Goliath - or shares spoils.
🏁 Avispa Fukuoka: Lineup
Team: Frankly speaking, Fukuoka have a very determined set of players, who although cannot be said to have individually brilliant players like their current hosts, they recognize the strength behind unity, and have employed that in the last eight weeks, where they have gone through fulltime fixtures with their heads up.
Players: Masato Shigemi is the player considered to have a stronger influence today, judging from his brilliant performance against Kyoto. His 93rd-minute assist and 95th-minute goals helped his team to gain buoyancy last week, in a tie game which was already decided as a loss at rhenstrike of ninety minutes.
Predicted Lineup (3-4-2-1): Obata, Kamijima-Nara-Ando, Iwasaki-Matsuoka-Akino-Fujimoto, Konno-Nago, Usui
👤 Head Coach: Myung Hwi Kim
⛔ Out: Nil

🎯 Urawa Reds vs Avispa Fukuoka Match Prediction 27 July 2025
Something that struck the Urawa fans was Marciej Skorza’s timely substitutions giving the players good rest ahead of this game. Scoring for Urawa has not been a problem in the past weeks. However Fukuoka tends to be stubborn until the end, as they have shown over the most recent games. The ideal prediction will be for goals to feature in both halves, a lot of corners and a probable goal before the first twenty minutes.
What are my picks?
🔥 My prediction is for the Urawa Reds to score at least two goals at 2.60 odds from 1xbet; This is because Urawa has a lot of motivation. They need to return to good graces as quickly as possible, and where else will they have more support than at home?
🔥 Our betting tip will be the BTTS - Yes option at a coefficient of 2.10 odds from Bet365. This contemplation stems from the fact that Fukuoka is not an easy foe. They always find a way to bite back. Besides, loss has not been reflective of their performances, since the defeat against Cerezo Osaka.
🔥 Lastly, I will pick the O2.5 goals as my final choice at the coefficient of 2.40 odds from the Betway bookmaker. Since the team are expected to contend with goals, at least three goals should be reflective in this contest, despite the previous goal scarcity recorded from their clashes.
