Fourth-placed Vissel Kobe take to the field on Tuesday to take on 16th-place Tokyo Verdy. Ushi are still in the title race, but they have very little room for error in the run-in. Will they be able to defeat Verdy and keep their title aspirations alive? Check out our match prediction.
Vissel Kobe will have to balance their title defense with their participation in the Champions League Elite, of which they just kicked off the league phase. After a collapse in the second leg saw them eliminated in the round of 16, they’ll be out to make a deeper run this time around.
They got off to a perfect start, running out 3-0 away winners over Shanghai Port last Wednesday. Vissel’s last appearance in the J1 League saw them held to a 0-0 draw at home against Kashiwa.
They’re now unbeaten in their last four league fixtures, drawing twice and winning twice.
Their opponents Tokyo Verdy are battling against relegation, although they have built up a seven-point lead over the bottom three. The visitors secured an important three points on Saturday, beating Okayama 4-2 at home to further increase their lead over the drop zone.
The win snapped a five game losing run across all competitions for Verdy, four of which ended in defeat.

Our Vissel Kobe vs Tokyo Verdy Prediction
Despite scoring four times in their last outing, Tokyo Verdy have really been struggling for consistent goal output all season. However, they have an above-average defense, which should make for a low-scoring match here.
Vissel Kobe boast one of the league’s best defenses and shouldn’t have much of a problem containing a Verdy side that has scored just six times on the road this season. Still, the visitors have the organization to make life difficult for the hosts. Our Vissel Kobe vs Tokyo Verdy prediction is BTTS: No + under 2.5.
