Kofu and Ehime could brighten up Saturday morning

"Ehime are fifth bottom in the 22-team league, but they have recently scored in six consecutive away matches"

Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 2.166/5 in Kofu v Ehime

Tobias Gourlay's got an early start this Saturday morning, but Kofu and Ehime can make it all worthwhile

Kofu v Ehime
Saturday 10:00

Sheffield Wednesday brought down Thursday's bet with their first clean sheet of the new season, beating Sunderland 2-0. Today, we go again.

Relegated from Japan's J League last season, Kofu made an uninspired start to life back in the J League 2. But, since bringing in current boss Nobuhiro Ueno, both teams have scored in a perfect 9/9 games at Yamanashi Chuo Bank Stadium. With seven of those matches delivering at least three goals, we're surprised to see Over 2.5 Goals as an odds-against shot for Saturday's visit from Ehime.

Ehime are fifth bottom in the 22-team league, but they have recently scored in six consecutive away matches. They've managed just two clean sheets in 10 on the road and they look well equipped to maintain not only Kofu's BTTS run but - more importantly for us - help get this match to Over 2.5 Goals.
