Machida Zelvia are joint top of the table in the J1 League with 27 points from 12 matches. Their next opponent is Gamba Osaka, who are 16 points behind and have one win in their past ten matches. The home team is also outscoring Gamba Osaka while conceding 100% fewer goals. Hence, our Machida Zelvia vs Gamba Osaka match prediction is a home win.
Machida beat Shenhua 1-0 in the AFC Champions League Two, their sixth victory in seven games. Their last league tie was a 0-0 draw that followed the 5-0 drubbing of 10-man Shimizu. Machida also won the two games prior, with 3-0 and 1-0 scorelines. They are now the best-scoring side in the league with 30 goals in 12 matches.
This on-form Machida side should easily beat Gamba, who have only two wins in 12 league games. Gamba played 1-1 against Buriram a few days after their 2-2 draw with Kyoto Sanga. The away side’s goal scoring in the league has also been poor after only six goals in their past seven matches. Gamba have also scored only 14 league goals in 12 games.
Zelvia have the edge due to the stellar performance in attack and defence. We expect the gulf between both teams to be on display as the home side picks up another H2H win over Gamba.
