Head-to-head statistics Tokyo Verdy - Kashiwa Reysol

Tokyo Verdy Team Overview
The team's most recent official match took place on as part of the J1 League tournament (home team - Tokyo Verdy, away team - Kawasaki Frontale). The match concluded with a scoreline of 1:1.
Here's the game statistics (Tokyo Verdy vs Kawasaki Frontale):
- ball possession: 31% vs 69%;
- corner kicks: 4 vs 4;
- fouls: 13 vs 9;
- yellow cards: 0 vs 1;
- shots on target: 4 vs 4.
The hosts started the season with a draw against Kawasaki Frontale (1:1), which can be equated to a defeat. The team created more threat in the opposition half despite playing second fiddle, but failed to hold the winning score, conceding in the 96th minute. Looking back at last season's transition period, Hiroshi Jofuku's proteges won just 1 of their last 8 matches. Injuries to key midfielders Koki Morita and Hiroto Yamami seriously weaken the centre of the pitch. Without them, the team risks losing control of the game again, as was the case in the first round.

Kashiwa Reysol Team Overview
The away team played their last official match on as part of the J1 League tournament (home team - Kashiwa Reysol, away - Mito Hollyhock). The match concluded with a scoreline of 2:1.
Here are the match stats (Kashiwa Reysol vs Mito Hollyhock):
- ball possession: 54% vs 46%;
- corner kicks: 1 vs 5;
- fouls: 5 vs 11;
- yellow cards: 0 vs 1;
- shots on target: 7 vs 3.
The visitors started with a win over Mito HollyHock (2:1). Goals from Yuki Kakita and Yoshio Koizumi earned them three points. However, Ricardo Rodriguez's side allowed one of the season's bottom clubs far too much and were far from convincing in terms of performance. This is a concern, as away from home Kashiwa have scored no more than one goal in 6 of their last 7 J1 League matches, which risks dropping points. Reysol also have injury problems: Yuto Yamada, Masaki Watai, Tomoaki Okubo and Kohei Tezuka are all out. However, the depth of the squad allows them to cover for those absences.

⭐ Editor's Pick
Kashiwa Reysol are the bookmakers' favourites, but in the first round they were unconvincing at home against a bottom-side. On top of that, they have lost their last two head-to-head meetings with Tokyo. With that in mind, we don't believe in a home win and are leaning towards a 1-1 draw. The optimal bet is Kashiwa Reysol individual total under 1.5 goals.
