Yokohama F. Marinos have failed to win six of their last seven J1 League home matches, dating back to last season. They welcome Vissel Kobe to Nissan Stadium in their 2026-27 Round 3 fixture on Saturday. Vissel Kobe have won each of their last three J1 League away matches against the hosts, leading us to back the visitors in our prediction.

Taisei Inoue’s 79th-minute goal was all Yokohama F. Marinos needed to edge Shimizu S-Pulse 1–0 in the second round last week in Shizuoka. That result saw Marinos return to winning ways after they lost by one goal in a seven-goal thriller to visiting Kashima Antlers in the opening round. 

Steve Corica’s team will be out for another strong showing on Saturday but are in for a far tougher challenge. They have lost each of their last three J1 League matches against Vissel Kobe. 

Vissel Kobe salvaged a crucial point at the death in a thrilling 2–2 draw against visiting FC Tokyo to maintain their unbeaten start to the season, thanks to Yoshinori Muto’s stoppage-time equaliser. 

Ushi are unbeaten in four of their last five J1 League matches, dating back to last season, and will be confident of extending that run in Saturday's contest. They have won each of their last three league visits to Yokohama F. Marinos.
