Japan vs Canada Prediction and Betting Tips, Head-to-Head, International Friendly Odds

The home team is currently experiencing a strong run of form as they continue preparations for the AFC Asian Cup next year.

Japan vs Canada Prediction and Betting Tips: Friday will feature a friendly match between Japan and Canada at the Denka Big Swan Stadium.

The home team is currently experiencing a strong run of form as they continue preparations for the AFC Asian Cup next year. They defeated Turkey 4-2 in their most recent match, with three different players scoring, including Keito Nakamura of Stade de Reims, who scored twice.

Following Friday’s match, Japan will host Tunisia at the Noevir Stadium in Kobe the following Tuesday in a friendly before beginning World Cup qualifying play against Macau the following month.

In contrast, Canada’s July CONCACAF Gold Cup campaign yielded uneven results. They were eliminated from the competition in the quarterfinals after losing on penalties to the United States following a 2-2 draw in extra time.

Before next month’s quarterfinals of the CONCACAF Nations League, the visitors will now attempt to shake off their recent results and return to winning ways.

Japan vs Canada Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

  • Three meetings have taken place between Japan and Canada. Two of these contests have been won by the home team, while the other was won by the opponent.
  • The two teams last met in a friendly match in November of last year, with the Canadians prevailing 2-1 thanks to goals from Steven Vitoria and Lucas Cavallini.
  • Japan have failed to keep a clean sheet in their previous three matches.
  • The last time Samurai Blue faced CONCACAF opposition was in June, when they defeated El Salvador 6-0 in a Kirin Challenge Cup match at Toyota Stadium.
  • Canada was rated 44th in the most recent FIFA rankings, 25 places behind their opponent this week.

Japan vs Canada Prediction

Prior to their current four-game winning streak, Japan had won only one of their previous five contests. This weekend, they will be hoping for a positive result, as they have lost just one of their last seven home matches.

In contrast, Canada have won just one of their last five matches across all competitions. The disparity in class and quality between the two teams, coupled with their divergent performances, should result in a Japan victory on Friday.

Prediction: Japan will defeat Canada 2-1.
