Japan vs Australia Prediction

Under2.5 goals
98% confidence

Why we picked this for Japan vs Australia

Under 2.5 goals is our call for Japan against Australia (World Cup), rated at 98% confidence. Matches involving Japan produced 2.8 goals per game over their last 5, and 2 of those went over 2.5. For Australia it is 2.4 goals per game, with 3 of 5 over 2.5. Form on its own doesn't settle this one: 5 of the 10 recent games went under 2.5, which is worth keeping in mind before backing Under 2.5.

The two sides haven't met recently, so head-to-head history plays no part in this call. At 98%, most of the recent evidence lands on this side of the line, which makes it one of our stronger calls. Final score: 2-1. The pick lost.
