Yokohama vs Urawa Reds Prediction

Yokohama have a poor record against the visitors with just a couple of wins against Urawa Reds. They have lost four games in a row against the Reds and will look to improve upon that record.

They have recorded three wins in their last four home games in all competitions and will bank on the home advantage to secure a positive result in this match.

The visitors have suffered just one defeat in all competitions since February. They have dominated proceedings against the hosts and, considering their current form, we expect them to record a narrow win while the odds of a clean sheet also look good.
