Japan has already secured their place at the 2026 World Cup after defeating Bahrain 2-0. They remain undefeated in their last 13 qualifying matches, winning six out of seven games in their group. Japan demonstrate stability both in attack and defense, scoring 24 goals and conceding only two in the group. Although they have already qualified, the "Samurais" remain motivated to finish the qualifying campaign convincingly.
Saudi Arabia struggling in attackSaudi Arabia are still in the race for a spot in the 2026 World Cup, but their performance is disappointing. The team has only won two out of their last seven qualifying matches - both against China. The lack of sharpness in attack is evident, as they have scored only one goal in their last five matches. Their form as guests is relatively stable, but playing in Japan poses a serious challenge.
Bet on under 2.5 goalsJapan demonstrate solid defense and control over matches, while Saudi Arabia struggle in attack. The last five matches between the two teams have ended with under 2.5 goals, and Japan's defensive stability suggests that the trend will continue.
