Below are the betting tips and instructions for participating in betting for the match taking place in the early morning of July 31.
Betting tips for Israel vs Japan 1st half: Asian handicap (Japan -0.25), Over/Under (Over 1.25) Betting tips for Israel vs Japan full match: Asian handicap (Japan -0.5), Over/Under (Over 2.5)
Betting tips for Israel vs Japan 1st half
After their recent performance, Japan is naturally considered much stronger than their opponent. Therefore, it’s not surprising that the handicap odds for the first 45 minutes are slightly in favor of the Asian representative. Specifically, the handicap is set at -0.25 for Japan. This is clearly a very good opportunity to choose the team with the upper hand.
Because in the last 2 matches, Israel has not achieved any victories in this betting market. Recently, the European football representative also allowed Paraguay to take the lead in the first half. Therefore, the chance for them to create surprises in the upcoming match is quite slim. Moreover, the lack of a competitive spirit also affects Israel’s performance in the upcoming match.
On the other hand, the final group stage match against Israel will be an opportunity for many players who have not had much playing time in this year’s Olympic Games to show their skills and impress HLV Go Oiwa. Therefore, the Blue Samurai warriors are likely to continue their familiar attacking style. At that time, the chance for Israel to stand firm in the first half is quite low.
It can be seen that Japan is far superior to their opponents. The playing style of the young players from the Land of the Rising Sun is quite modern. They actively control and consistently advance the ball, leaving their opponents struggling to resist. Against an Israel team with no fighting spirit, Japan will have plenty of opportunities to attack. Therefore, choosing Over 1 goal for the first half is a reasonable option to consider.
Prediction for Israel vs Japan: Choose Japan -0.25 HT, Over 1.25 for the 1st half.
Betting tips for Israel vs Japan full match
The diversity in their attacking style is bringing many benefits to the players of the Japanese Olympic team. Despite not having a very good physique, the Asian representative can still compete for high balls on par with the robust players of Mali in the previous match. In addition, good technical foundation helps Japan’s breakthrough ability and the central attacking areas become extremely sharp.
At just 21 years old, Rihito Yamamoto has shown and is showing his importance in the playing style of the Blue Samurai. In addition to his ability to control the game and make accurate passes, the player for Sint Truiden frequently penetrates the penalty area and creates dangerous scoring opportunities. Yamamoto has already scored 2 goals in this Olympic Games.
With the current form combined with only having to face a less decisive defensive line of Israel, Japanese strikers will have the opportunity to increase their individual achievements. Physical fitness and concentration at crucial moments are what the Olympic Israel team has yet to achieve. The experience of Shon Goldberg alone is not enough for Olympic Israel to stand firm against recent opponents. Once a player playing for Maccabi Haifa is exhausted at the end of the match, Israel almost has no resistance against the attacks. In the upcoming match between the Olympic Israel and Japan teams, the match prediction still puts full confidence in the Asian representative. Clearly, with the current form, HLV Go Oiwa’s team can completely overwhelm Israel. Therefore, with a handicap of only -0.5 for the whole match, the advantage for Japan is an option not to be missed. In addition, choosing Over with an odds ratio of 2.5 is also a good option. After their last 2 matches, Japan has scored 6 goals, while Israel has conceded 5 times. Israel vs Japan match prediction: Choose Japan -0.5 FT, Over 2.5 for the whole match.
