- Blaublitz Akita have only won 4 of their 14 home games in J2 League 2025, losing 8 of them.

- V-Varen Nagasaki are unbeaten in 5, winning 4 (D1).
- V-Varen Nagasaki have won 6 and lost 3 of their 14 away J2 League 2025 games, scoring 23 goals (1.64 per game) on the road.
- Nagasaki are in red-hot form at the moment, going 4 wins and 1 draw from their last 5 J2 League 2025 fixtures, including wins over Fujieda MYFC (2-1) and RB Omiya Ardija (2-1), something to factor in for any Blaublitz Akita vs V-Varen Nagasaki prediction.

Head-to-Head
Nagasaki have won 3 of the last 5 head-to-head games, including a 5-1 rout of Akita six months ago, so they come into this with the psychological edge as well as the superior recent form - an important angle for those looking for Blaublitz Akita vs V-Varen Nagasaki betting tips.
Key Players
- In Ren Komatsu, they have a reliable targetman up top with nine goals in 22 J2 League 2025 appearances and in Daiki Sato, they have a playmaker that has been on fire recently, providing 3 assists in the club’s last 5 games.
- However, they are unlikely to match the destructive force of Nagasaki’s on-fire Matheus Jesus, who has scored 16 goals in 30 games in J2 League 2025.
- The Brazilian has 4 goals in his last 5 league outings and has directly contributed to half of Nagasaki’s last eight goals.
