What to expect
We expect about 1.7 goals from V-Varen Nagasaki and 1.7 from Gamba Osaka, which is as level as our reading of a game gets. Put together, that is around 3.4 goals in the game, and a match we expect to open up at both ends.
Our pick: Both teams to score. Both of these carry enough of a threat to find the net (xG 1.7-1.7), and we make both teams to score about 58%. Expect goals at either end rather than a one-sided shut-out.
We put the chance of that landing at about 58 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.68, which works out at about 60 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.

One thing to watch
One well-drilled defence, or a game that turns one-sided, and this is gone. We make it about 58% and the price sits right on top of that, so there's little cushion if it turns.
