Match Preview
Vissel Kobe will host Sanfrecce Hiroshima at NOEVIR Stadium on July 2nd, looking to improve their recent form, which has seen them secure just one point from their last five matches. In contrast, Sanfrecce Hiroshima arrives with a more positive momentum, having won three of their last five fixtures. Historically, this matchup has favoured Vissel Kobe, who have won five of the last ten encounters, but their current struggles may give Sanfrecce an edge. A key angle to consider is the goal-scoring potential of both teams. While Vissel Kobe has found it difficult to convert chances recently, Sanfrecce Hiroshima's form suggests they are capable of finding the net. The odds for both teams to score (BTTS) are set at 1.9, indicating a belief that at least one side will breach the other's defence. With Vissel Kobe needing a turnaround and Sanfrecce looking to build on their recent success, this match could be a tightly contested affair with potential for goals.
