The bottom two in the J1 League collide on Saturday in what is a vital game for both Albirex Niigata and Yokohama F. Marinos. Albi manager Daisuke Kimori has seen his team win just once in the league at home this season, although they have drawn five. Patrick Kisnorbo's Marinos sit at the bottom of the table, but have landed victories in their last two league games. Who will our prediction favour in this match between the relegation-threatened rivals?
Albirex Niigata sit 19th out of the 20 teams in the J1 League table with just 16 points from 18 league games. Defensively, they have the joint-worst record in the division, conceding 27 goals in those matches, but they have scored 19 on the positive side. Marinos are at the bottom of the table with 14 points from their 18 games. They have conceded 26 goals and scored 17 this season.
In the league, Albirex Niigata did win their most recent home game 2-1 against Shonan Bellmare, but followed that up with a 3-0 away defeat to Nagoya Grampus 8. Their most recent game was a 1-0 Emperor Cup victory over lower-league Fukuyama City earlier this week.
Yokohama F. Marinos have won both their last two league games, beating leaders Kashima Antlers 3-1 at home in a real surprise result, before a 2-0 away win at Machida Zelvia. However, their most recent game saw them lose 2-0 to lower league Reinmeer Aomori in the Emperor Cup this past week.

Our Niigata Albirex vs Yokohama F Marinos Prediction
Our prediction for the Albirex Niigata vs. Yokohama F. Marinos J1 League game is: Over 2.5 Goals and Both Teams to Score.
It's been a miserable season for both these teams, and after a 1-1 draw between the two earlier this season, the onus is on both teams to land a win here. Two of the worst defensive records in the division mean that goals should be on the cards, in a fixture that tends to produce goals. Recent form also suggests that we could see a fair few goals at both ends in this key game.
