Our prediction is: Both teams to score

The best betting option for Urawa Reds vs Sanfrecce Hiroshima is the Both Teams to Score market - BTTS. After all, both teams need to seek victory and shouldn't 'park the bus' waiting for the opponent.

But that's not the only reason we believe in a game with goals for both teams. We also see value odds in the BTTS market when we have two offensive teams, as is the case with Urawa Reds and Sanfrecce Hiroshima in this game.

To guarantee a win on Both Teams to Score, as the name suggests, we need both Urawa Reds and Sanfrecce Hiroshima to score goals.
