Japan U23 played their latest match in style, thrashing their opponents 7-0, while Thailand U23 also just secured a 5-1 win in the Asian Games, giving both teams plenty of attacking confidence coming into this clash. Even though Thailand U23 look good from winning 2 matches in a row, their overall standard of play remains clearly inferior, especially in chance creation where Japan U23 have been far superior with an average of 60.3% possession over their last 10 games, backed by a defense that concedes very few goals. The match is expected to see Japan U23 piling on the pressure from the start. If they can find an early breakthrough, their sharper attacking efficiency should see them pull away to a comfortable victory.
