Tokyo Verdy and Kashima Antlers will meet at the Ajinomoto Stadium in the J1 League on Sunday. Verdy enter the penultimate game of the season in 14th place, while the Antlers lead the league standings. Let’s get into the match prediction!
The 2025 J1 League season has been a step backwards for Tokyo Verdy, as they are certain to finish with fewer points and well behind their top-six placement from last term.
Verdy played out a goalless draw at home to Avispa Fukuoka last weekend and have now failed to score in four of their last six games. They have only scored two goals in one of their last 20 league matches.
However, the hosts are unbeaten in their last four home league matches and kept clean sheets in each of their last three.
Meanwhile, Kashima Antlers head into the final two gameweeks of the season with their fate in their own hands. With a one-point lead, they could be crowned champions if they win this match and Kashiwa Reysol lose this weekend.
The Antlers secured a crucial 2-1 victory over Yokohama FC last week to maintain their spot at the summit. Leo Ceara scored in that match and is the front-runner for the Golden Boot with 19 goals this term.
The visitors have taken 30 points from their 18 away games this season (W9 D3 L6) and are unbeaten in their last six matches on the road ahead of this one (D2 L4).

Our Tokyo Verdy vs Kashima Antlers Prediction
A lack of attacking output has been a major factor in Tokyo Verdy’s downfall this season. In 36 league games, they’ve only scored 22 goals, which is fewer than every other team in the division.
Kashima Antlers have looked nervy in the lead-up to the end of the season, and three draws in their last four has seen their lead atop the standings cut to just one point. The visitors cannot afford to concede early here, so we feel they will likely prioritise the clean sheet. Our Tokyo Verdy vs Kashima Antlers prediction is BTTS (NO).
