Vissel Kobe vs Nagoya Grampus Prediction and Betting Tips | July 20th 2024 

Vissel Kobe will host Nagoya Grampus at the Noevir Stadium on Saturday in another round of the 2024 J1 League campaign. The home side are enjoying a good run of form and continue their fight for the league title as they sit third in the table with 41 points from 43 matches.

They played out a 1-1 draw against Consadole Sapporo last time out, finding themselves a goal down at the break before Yuya Osako headed home the leveler early in the second half.

Nagoya Grampus, meanwhile, endured a difficult run of results last month and now find themselves in the bottom half of the pile. They finally returned to winning ways on Sunday, beating Kashiwa Reysol 2-1 with Yuki Soma and Yuya Yamagishi netting a quickfire second-half double to overturn a one-goal deficit.

The visitors sit 11th in the league standings with 30 points from 23 matches and will be looking to build on their latest result when they head to Kobe on Saturday.
