Kawasaki Frontale have been strong at the Yurtec Stadium Sendai in this particular tournament, with only a 1-1 draw against Kashiwa Reysol highlighting the possibility that they could have some defensive frailties about them.

Our Vegalta Sendai vs Kawasaki Frontale predictions are based off the recent away form of the visitors, which makes the J. League Cup odds very tempting down to the fact that it offers real value to back an away team to be good in front of goal at this stage of a cup competition.

Goals should be guaranteed between these two sides, who both appear to know where the back of the net is from their recent outings in all competitions. The contest is balanced on a knife edge in terms of who will win it, but both teams can do each other damage.

Vegalta Sendai vs Kawasaki Frontale Prediction and Betting Advice

Vegalta Sendai have conceded in their last three home outings in the J. League Cup, with Shimizu S-Pulse, Kashiwa Reysol and Kashima Antlers managing to force their way through. Therefore, the away side this time around should be confident of doing the same thing. Unibet offer the best value in this market on them doing just that.

The hosts, however, are similarly dangerous. They’ve netted seven goals across their last three outings in this competition, and that should make for some entertainment. Throw in the fact that the away team have racked up a few impressive goal tallies over their last two involvements in this tournament and both teams scoring should be a formality.

Crislan and Naoki Ishihara have eight goals apiece in the J. League so far this season, while the away side have star striker Yu Kobayashi to help their forward line. He has 15 goals in 28 league appearances this season and will be keen to counter this form into a cup final too.

Our Vegalta Sendai vs Kawasaki Frontale bets believe that entertainment should be guaranteed in the first leg of this J. League Cup semi-final first leg, and 10Bet are offering good value on there being three goals or more in this clash.

As we have previously mentioned, both teams have their fair share of goalscorers, and the duo should be able to trade blows effectively. Kawasaki Frontale scored five goals away against Tokyo in their last match in this competition, and they will be keen to blow Vegalta Sendai out of the water too.

Our Vegalta Sendai vs Kawasaki Frontale picks suggest that home support may be enough for a narrow result, but both teams will be confident of taking chances in front of goal. The away side last failed to score in an away game in this tournament back in 2015, and this fact combined with Vegalta Sendai’s need to pick up a positive result in the first leg should mean that three goals are a formality.
