Japan

DWWWDL

Japan will be hoping to return to winning ways here following the 1-0 WC Qualifiers - Asia losing effort in their last game against Australia.

In that game, Japan managed 69% possession and 13 attempts at goal with 1 of them on target. At the other end, Australia had 6 attempts on goal with 3 of them on target. Aziz Behich (90') was the scorer for Australia.

Their latest results highlight the fact that things are going according to plan in the Japan defence. Japan have kept it tight, seeing the total number of goals that have flown into the back of their net over the course of their previous six outings standing at 3. It will be interesting to see whether or not that trend can be continued on here.

📰 Team News: Japan

We think that Samurai Blue may well make use of the 3-4-2-1 formation this time, utilising Keisuke Osako, Tsuyoshi Watanabe, Kaishu Sano, Ayumu Seko, Kota Takai, Wataru Endo, Takefusa Kubo, Shunsuke Mito, Ryoya Morishita, Shuto Machino and Daichi Kamada.

📰 Team News: Indonesia

We believe Merah-Putih appear most likely to make use of a 3-5-2 lineup, giving starts to Emil Audero, Mees Hilgers, Jay Idzes, Justin Hubner, Kevin Diks, Yance Sayuri, Joey Pelupessy, Thom Haye, Dean James, Beckham Putra and Ole Romeny.

🔮 Prediction

Indonesia may well find it hard to put one past a Japan side who will more than likely get a big win and also probable clean sheet.

We’re tipping a very comfortable 3-0 margin for Japan after 90 minutes.
