Head-to-head statistics Cerezo Osaka - Yokohama Marinos
Cerezo Osaka Team Overview
Cerezo Osaka's last match ended in a 2:0 home win over Kagoshima United in the Emperor's Cup 7 October 2026. The hosts had 64% possession and registered six shots on target to their opponents' two.
Cerezo Osaka have been inconsistent of late, winning two, drawing two and losing one of their last five matches. Over their last ten games they have won five and lost three, which suggests they are capable of picking up points against sides at their level. Their scoring rate is modest, though - averaging 1.2 goals per game while conceding 1.3 over those ten matches, and the balance is even worse across the season as a whole (0.88 scored, 1.5 conceded). Their league position means they need to be picking up more points to close the gap on the leading group.
Match Results: Cerezo Osaka
Yokohama Marinos Team Overview
Trailing Kyoto 0-1 at half-time, Yokohama Marinos came back to win 2-1 at home in their most recent match. The Emperor's Cup fixture took place 7 October 2026.
Yokohama Marinos come into this match in noticeably better form: four wins in their last five games, seven wins from ten with just one defeat - a consistent record for a side challenging at the top of the table. Their average scoring rate is higher (1.5 goals per match over ten games), and their defence looks more solid, conceding just 0.7 goals per game over that same period and just over one per game across the season (1.13). The trend supports their stability - they have gone unbeaten in eight of their last nine matches.
Match Results: Yokohama Marinos
Total Goals Prediction
The trend towards Total Goals - Under 3.5 is confirmed in 6 of Cerezo Osaka's last 7 matches, pointing to fairly low scoring in this team's games. Across the season as a whole, Cerezo Osaka average 0.88 goals scored per match and 1.5 conceded, which also suggests a tendency towards low-scoring outcomes. Yokohama Marinos average 1.63 goals per game, which nudges the overall average slightly higher, but not enough to expect a high-scoring match. The combined seasonal statistics of both teams and the trend make Total Goals - Under 3.5 at 1.45* the most well-founded bet.
Corners Prediction
In 6 of their last 7 matches, Cerezo Osaka have seen the total corners go over 10.5, which supports a tendency towards a high number of corners. However, in 7 of their last 8 away matches, Yokohama Marinos have seen the total corners come in under 10.5, which creates a degree of conflict. That said, Cerezo Osaka's home trend is pronounced, and a bet on Total Corners - Over 10.5 at 1.98* remains justified.
Both Teams to Score Prediction
In 6 of the last 7 head-to-head meetings at Cerezo Osaka's ground, both teams have scored, which points to a high likelihood of goals at both ends. Cerezo Osaka concede just 0.25 goals per home game this season, which tempers that probability slightly, though Yokohama Marinos are generally consistent in front of goal - 1.63 goals per match in the season overall and 1.67 away from home. Given the trend and the visitors' attacking potential, Both Teams to Score - Yes at 1.57* looks justified, although Cerezo Osaka's low home goals-against record does introduce some uncertainty.
Risky Bet
Cerezo Osaka have won the first half at home in 7 of their last 8 head-to-head meetings against Yokohama Marinos, which is a strong trend in favour of the hosts in the opening 45 minutes. However, Cerezo Osaka's first-half scoring record this season is not particularly impressive, and Yokohama Marinos have also rarely fallen behind in the first 45 minutes in their recent away matches. Despite this, a bet on Cerezo Osaka to win the first half at 2.85* is justified as a higher-risk option.
Reliable Bet
Yokohama Marinos have scored under 2.5 goals in six consecutive matches, which reflects a consistent trend of moderate scoring. Over the season, their average is 1.63 goals per match overall and 1.67 in away matches. In this context, Yokohama Marinos Team Total - Under 2.5 at 1.13* looks like the most reliable option.
Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's calculations, the three most likely outcomes are 1-0 (14.63%), 0-0 (12.28%) and 0-1 (12.07%). All three fall within a low-scoring scenario, with either a narrow win for one side or a goalless draw. The 1-0 result is the most probable, though the differences between the three options are small.

⭐ Editorial Prediction
Yokohama Marinos' form gives the visitors an advantage both in quality of play and in confidence - the team regularly picks up points even against difficult opponents, and their defensive discipline allows them to maintain a high tempo without serious problems at the back. Cerezo Osaka are struggling for consistent results and are less reliable defensively, which makes it difficult to chase the league leaders even at home. We consider the best prediction to be Yokohama Marinos not to lose.
