This game is likely to be decided in the closing stages, as both teams score most of their goals in the 76-90 minute period. Tokyo Verdy have scored 25% of their total goals in that time, while Kashima Antlers have scored 32% in the same period. However, the point that makes it difficult for the home side is the period before half-time, where Tokyo Verdy concede 25% of all their goals, while Kashima Antlers also concede the most in this period at 22%, making the 31-45 minute period one where both teams have a high chance of scoring. Kashima Antlers' recent form is a winning run (5-0, 4-3, 2-1, 3-2, 3-0), but their defense has conceded in every match except the latest. Meanwhile, Tokyo Verdy just won their last match 4-1 and are unbeaten in 2 consecutive matches (0-0, 4-1). In this game, the home side must wait for counter-attacking opportunities, and if they can do so in the 76-90 minute period, where they score most often, the chance of securing a draw or a win is wide open.
