The read

A repeat of the H2H pattern where Urawa wins after a goalless first half is possible but not strongly supported by recent form, hence low confidence.

• Urawa have won 2 of 3 H2H meetings, both after 0-0 half-times.
• Urawa's home record: 3 wins, all after leading at half-time in only 1 match.
• Okayama's away record: 3 wins, none after leading at half-time.
• First leg was 0-0 at half-time, 1-1 full-time.

• Urawa's last 15 matches average 2.6 total goals, but 8 of 15 had under 2.5.

• Urawa kept clean sheets in 2 of the 3 H2H matches.
• Urawa have failed to score in 3 of their last 15 matches; Okayama failed to score in 4 of their last 15.
