Title-chasing Kashiwa Reysol hosts Machida Zelvia at Sankyo Frontier Kashiwa Stadium on matchday 38 of the J1 League. Reysol are in second place in the league standings, while Zelvia are in sixth. Here's our match prediction.
Kashiwa Reysol have amassed 72 points from 37 games and sit one point behind the league leaders, Kashima Antlers. A win here, combined with results going their way elsewhere, could see them clinch their second J1 League title.
Reysol comes into this match off the back of a 3-1 away victory to Albirex Niigata. This extended their league-winning streak to five games. Notably, they've avoided defeat in 11 games (W7, D4).
The Gold and Black have been a force to be reckoned with at Sankyo Frontier Kashiwa Stadium. They are unbeaten in their last 14 matches across all competitions.
Machida Zelvia might not be in contention for the league title this season, but they get to conclude the 2025-26 campaign with a piece of silverware. The visitors beat Vissel Kobe 3-1 in the Emperor's Cup final to clinch their maiden title.
Zelvia are unbeaten in their last four matches across all competitions heading into this clash. Their most recent league match was against Nagoya Grampus, which they won 3-1 at home.

Our Kashiwa Reysol vs Machida Zelvia Prediction
Both Kashiwa Reysol and Machida Zelvia are coming off wins in the J1 League, and this matchup presents an opportunity for the two teams to end the season on a high note. The odds favor Reysol to come out on top because of their strong home performances compared to the visitors' floundering form on the road.
Despite this, Machida Zelvia should not be underestimated, having won 3-0 in the reverse fixture. That said, expect a back-and-forth brawl where goals on both ends of the pitch feel almost inevitable. Our Kashiwa Reysol vs Machida Zelvia prediction: BTTS.
