Brazil W vs Japan W Prediction & Betting Tips (30 November)

Although results have picked up a bit recently, the fact that Brazil W have recorded just two victories in their previous 10 top-flight home fixtures, losing on five occasions, goes a long way towards explaining why they find themselves locked in a difficult battle. As for title-chasing Japan W, they have triumphed four times in five trips at this level of late.

Somewhat incredibly, Japan W have been involved in 13 consecutive top-flight fixtures containing over 2.5 goals, with the Friendly International Women outscoring their opponents by 43 goals to 10 during this sequence. Given that nine of the last ten Brazil W games at this level have followed suit, a minimum of three goals are expected when the teams meet.

At least one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet from each of the previous five Brazil W matches in the Friendly International Women, so there is no reason to see this pattern changing against Japan W. One reason for this is that it has also been the case in each of the Toffees’ last three away games at this level, so both teams are on the same page.
