Ce qui a guidé la lecture

Japan have incentive to win and move to 4 points after drawing Netherlands, while Tunisia’s -4 GD means they cannot treat a narrow defeat as useful. That should eventually open spaces for Japan’s wingbacks and late attackers.
Japan’s XI has the cleaner 3-4-2-1 balance: Tomiyasu-Itakura-Ito protection, Kamada/Sano control, Doan/Nakamura width, and Ueda as a focal point. Tunisia’s shape has work rate through Skhiri/Hannibal but less proven penalty-box threat, with attacking upgrades mostly held for the bench.
Preferred over Away -1.25 because -1 keeps the push on a one-goal Japan win; Tunisia +1/+1.25 needs the underdog to stay within one despite a poor opening 5-1 loss and a matchup where Japan can control width and transitions.

Pourquoi il a fait le board

Complete

Japan’s lineup offers better defensive security, midfield control, and late attacking depth, and the group state rewards a proactive win rather than settling for a draw. Away -1 is safer than chasing -1.25 because it refunds on a one-goal Japan win while still backing the clearer side edge.

Risque principal

Tactical Counter: Main risk is Tunisia staying compact in a mirrored 3-4-2-1 and turning the match into a low-margin game where Japan win by only one or fail to break through early.
