Japan vs Venezuela prediction
After reaching the round of 32 of FIFA World Cup 2026 before a dramatic defeat to Brazil with plenty of injuries, Japan got back on track the other day with an impressive 3-1 defeat of Uruguay in their most recent outing the other day.
Venezuela, still the only South American country yet to qualify for a FIFA World Cup, did show some improvement earlier this year with a slender loss to Turkiye as well as victories against Iraq and Trinidad and Tobago, as well as a draw with Uzbekistan.
Japan are a major step up from the Iraqis, Trinidadians and Uzbeks so siding with a comfortable win for the hosts is the way to go for this one.
Japan vs Venezuela tip: Japan to win -1 handicap
