Colombia vs Japan Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup

 by Valeria Di Meglio | in World Cup Prediction

Both sides are fairly experienced at this level, having played over 15 World Cup matches and though Colombia did not play many friendly matches, they will head to this clash confident enough knowing they have perfected the art of playing against Japan and also they have kept two clean sheets against the Asian nation. Colombia head to the game unbeaten in their last four matches, winning two, drawing two and losing one, then scoring eight and conceding four in the process. They have five wins in 13 matches and five clean sheets in their last 10 matches. They have scored in 11 of their last 17 matches and have six wins in their previous 10 World Cup matches. Japan on their part, have three losses, a draw and a win in their last five matches, scoring six goals and conceding nine. They will head to this game on a really wrong footing, having managed just three wins in 11 matches and with two clean sheets in 15 matches. They will; however want to hold on to the form that has seen them score in 11 of the last 17 matches. This will be Japan’s 18th World Cup game but they have not won any of the last four. In the last 17 World Cup matches they have played, there have been just four wins. Head to head, the two sides have met three times, Colombia winning two and one ending in a draw.

Our Colombia vs Japan Prediction

Colombia are Japan’s bogey team, going by their history and getting to this competition, Japan have not done too well. They have been conceding a lot of goals lately and have not had a very good run in the preparation phase for this competition. With two clean sheets in the last 15 matches, Japan have been frail defensively, even though they have done fairly well in attack, scoring in 11 of their last 17. Colombia have also scored in 11 of their last 17 matches and keeping a big chunk of their top performers from the 2014 World Cup will work for them. A good prediction here is for both teams to score but Colombia picking a win.
