Editor's Prediction
Considering the current form of both teams and trend statistics, the likelihood of Nagoya dropping points on the road again is quite high. Shimizu S-Pulse have the home advantage and display a consistent attack even against strong opponents, both at home and away. Meanwhile, the overall form of the visitors leaves much to be desired, especially when looking at their attacking capabilities away from home turf. Taking all factors into account, a bet on a double chance for the hosts seems the most reasonable - the home side is likely to either secure a narrow victory or manage to avoid defeat.
