Top Three Free Predictions and Betting Tips for Japan vs Spain

Bookmaker Ratings Prediction One: Over 3 Yellow Cards – 1.38

Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Two: Over 7.5 Corners – 1.34

Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Three: Spain to Win the 2nd Half – 1.62

Over 3 Yellow Cards

Three of Japan’s last five competitive games produced three or more yellow cards. Likewise, Spain’s four of their five games prior to this one also ended with three or more yellow cards shown.

Over 7.5 Corners

Four of Japan’s last five competitive fixtures produced eight or more corners. Meanwhile, there were a total of seven or more corners in Spain’s four of their last five outings. We predict this match to be similar to the Japan vs Germany game which produced 12 corners.

Spain to Win the 2nd Half

Spain have been decisive in their matches when it comes to ending the game in their favor. To illustrate, La Roja won 50% of their last ten matches in the second halves and three in the last five. Japan meanwhile lost 30% of their last ten games after the break.

Preliminary Review Match Prediction and Statistics for Japan vs Spain

Japan

Japan’s hard work and the amazing result of beating Germany in the first round, went in vain. The Blue Samurais couldn’t capitalize on the famous win over the four-time champions and were defeated by Costa Rica on matchday two. Japan now have three points and still with a chance to finish in the top two if they beat Spain.

On the other hand, a draw here and the Blue Samurai must wait for the result of the group’s other match. A defeat most certainly will eliminate Japan. In their last game against Costa Rica, coach Moriyasu’s men did everything but score in the match and conceded from Costa Rica’s one shot on goal. 

Spain 

Spain failed to maintain the lead they had and had to settle for a draw with Germany in the second round. La Roja are leading the group with four points but must avoid defeat against Japan not to enter into complicated calculations. 

It was a tense game against Germany who needed a win at all costs. However, Luis Enrique’s team sustained the German pressure and even had more ball possession with 64% but the German side threatened the Spanish goal with four shots of which four were saved by the goalie Simon. 

Japan vs Spain Prediction

No one expected this group to be so closely contested as Spain and Germany were clear favorites to take the first two spots. For this game, our primary prediction will be in the yellow cards market as we predict over three cards since it is the final game of the group and the tensions will be high.
