Japan v Bulgaria predictions

This international friendly between Japan and Bulgaria is being played at the Toyota stadium. Japan is preparing for the upcoming Confederations Cup in Brazil as well as the WCQ-games remaining. They have recalled big name players in CSKA's Honda and Inter's Nagatomo. They'll slot in well with the likes of Kagawa (Man U) and Uchida (Schalke).

Bulgaria is 2-4-0 in their WCQ-games and have slowly but surely been building a strong squad again, mainly based on yet to be discovered names for most of us. It was a surprise Tonev of Lech Poznan wasn't called up. He usually takes on attacking midfield roles, and has scored 3 in 5 WCQ-games for Bulgaria so far this season. Spas Delev of CSKA Sofia is called in instead. He has been in fine form in the domestic league with 5 goals in 13, so I doubt he'll weaken the team much.

Japan v Bulgaria betting tips

Japan surely will want to give it a go with the Confederations Cup coming up in no time. In Bulgaria they have a very tough to beat opponent though. They have gone six games now without conceding more than three goals. On the other side of the coin, this Bulgaria side isn't exactly pouring in goals. If one excludes the game against Malta that they won 6-0. They've only scored three more times in the six game interval mentioned above.

Japan are definitely favorites. 1.53-1.55 (8/15 - 4/7) isn't useful though in a friendly like this even if they play at home. Bulgaria beat Holland away last year in a friendly (their most recent friendly away from home) so they're more than capable of an upset.

Bulgaria +1 with BET365 at 1.825 is my betting tips. Their defensive capabilities are clear for all to see, and Japan is not stronger than teams they've been dealing with lately, very well one must add!
