Japan vs Syria Prediction & Betting tips
Friendly match that will face in Tokyo to the selections of Japan and Syria.
Japan :
No surprise in the Japanese squad where there are no missing key players in the Japanese team: Honda, Okazaki, Nagatomo, Kagawa, Yoshida, Sakai … In general, everyone is playing in Europe. As news we find up to 5 players of the Japanese league that could debut with the Japanese combo. The Japanese are preparing the game against Iraq that could qualify them practically for the World Cup, reason why I hope that we see some rotation and the debut of some of these players. When Japan has faced teams of level has not exceeded this line habitually: in the 7 Asian qualifying matches in the last round, only against Thailand (the worst defensive team of the 12 ranked) has exceeded this line. In fact if we look back, since the summer of 2015 has only surpassed this marker in a 5-0 to Syria (which we will now value) and Afghanistan, in addition to Thailand. One of the reasons is Japan’s difficulties to open the can against teams that fit well behind and enduring the long possessions of the Japanese, who lack a referent striker beyond a Okazaki who is a striker of another profile .
Syria :
Syria is the big surprise of this final phase of the world by Asian pass. When worse things are painted for the country, playing away from it (based in Malaysia), they are not very far from achieving the hatchet to qualify for the World Cup. In any case, its action is tremendously meritorious and before the selection of China they will burn their last world-wide bullets. Against all odds, with players playing in the Middle East (and 1 in China) and making the block their base have achieved incredible results. The base has been in the defensive work and in scoring very little but monetized, that is why they have only scored 2 goals and conceded 3 in 7 games! And against some of the best teams on the continent (South Korea, Iran, Qatar, Uzbekistan, China). Not counting the thrashing to Cambodia or Afghanistan (which have nothing to do with this match), since 2015 have only exceeded this line in the 5-0 defeat against Japan in a game in which the Syrians played nothing to be classified (Also Japan) and where in the 86th minute they lost only 2-0.
I am confident of the Syrian defense in the face of this match. It is a serious examination for them, because it is to face an improved version of China that will have to deal in a few days. Despite the lack of names, the Syrian team is very well worked and made a real party recently to South Korea, which deserved more than that defeat by 1-0. Japan should be at their highest level and be very successful in the face so that we can see enough goals in this match, and I do not trust this given the friendly character of the game and the many changes we will see in both sets (which always slow down the pace Of the party). Good luck and resist Syria.
