Kyrgyzstan hosts Japan in round 5 of the second stage of the Asian World Cup qualification. The match will be played on Thursday, November 14th at Dolen Omurzakov Stadium (Bishkek)
The Kyrgyz team has very good chances to get into the next round through second place. Except for the Japanese, all rivals can be defeated. Kyrgyzstan may well compete with Myanmar, Tajikistan, and Mongolia. But Japan is another Asian football universe, so to speak, and it is still too early for the Kyrgyz to fight against such national teams, especially in a match of such a level. The hosts can safely set a goal just not to lose devastatingly, and there is nothing wrong with that. The Kyrgyz had quite a few matches with serious Asian teams in 2018-2019. Largely, they were united by the fact that the Kyrgyz could not even score. They lost to South Koreans (0-1), Qatar (0-1) and the Japanese in a friendly game (0-4). They also tried their hand at the intercontinental level and decided to play with the Azerbaijanis, which ended in a 0-3 dry defeat. Therefore, the men of Aleksandr Krestinin must learn to score serious rivals in the first place, and only then they may think about gaining points in such matches.

The Japanese feel like at a resort in this qualifying group. Three matches have already been played, and naturally, all three were won, with a total goal difference of 11-0. As we see, the Samurais do not even want to concede goals, not to lose points. In general, the Japanese ha a very good streak now - the team does not concede in four games in a row. Three qualification matches with Myanmar, Mongolia, and Tajikistan, and there was a friendly match with the Paraguayans, where the men of Hajime Moriyasu also played perfectly (2-0). So it turns out that the Japanese have won with a clean sheet for four games in a row. Are there any chances to extend the streak to five matches? Of course, and they are rather high! As I said before, the Kyrgyz simply don’t know how to score strong rivals.
I decided to stop on the option “Both to teams to score – no”. Naturally, the bet is aimed at the fact that the Japanese will win with a clean sheet. It is unlikely that the final score will be 0-0. The visitors will surely find ways to the net of Kyrgyzstan, but perhaps you shouldn't expect any goals from the hosts.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – no
