Japan Live Score

Japan is a football nation that competes in multiple high-profile international tournaments, including the World Cup, Kings League, World Cup Qualification Asia, and Friendly International matches. For fans and bettors searching for Japan stats and predictions, this page delivers a comprehensive analysis of the team’s recent form, key seasonal numbers, and match forecasts based on the latest 2026 data.

Japan Current Form

Japan’s recent results show a mixed but promising run across friendlies and World Cup group encounters. The last five matches, listed from most recent to oldest, are:

• Jun 29: Brazil 2–1 Japan (L) – World Cup
• Jun 25: Japan 1–1 Sweden (D) – World Cup
• Jun 21: Tunisia 0–4 Japan (W) – World Cup
• Jun 14: Netherlands 2–2 Japan (D) – World Cup
• May 31: Japan 1–0 Iceland (W) – Friendly International

That run yields 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss. The team has found the net 9 times while conceding only 5, resulting in a healthy +4 goal difference. The attack averages 1.8 goals per game, and the defense has been solid against both physical European sides and technically disciplined opponents.

Season Stats

Although no league table standings are available for Japan in the World Cup (the current overall table lists 12 teams with zero matches played), we can compile a clear statistical snapshot from the 2026 international fixtures:

• Matches played: 5
• Wins: 2
• Draws: 2
• Losses: 1
• Goals scored: 9
• Goals conceded: 5
• Clean sheets: 2 (vs Iceland and Tunisia)

Breaking it down by venue:

• Home (2 matches): 1 win, 1 draw – 4 goals scored, 1 conceded.
• Away (3 matches): 1 win, 1 draw, 1 loss – 5 goals scored, 4 conceded.

Japan’s ability to score away from home (including a 4-goal haul in Tunisia) highlights their attacking threat wherever they play.

Japan Match Predictions: Win Probability

Japan’s win probability in upcoming matches is estimated at 40%, with a 40% chance of a draw and a 20% chance of a loss. This assessment is based directly on the team’s last five results (2 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss). The figures reflect a team that is competitive but not dominant – they have earned draws against European heavyweights Netherlands and Sweden while beating Tunisia convincingly, but fell to powerhouse Brazil.

Given the current form and goal statistics (averaging 1.8 scored vs 1.0 conceded), Japan is likely to challenge most opponents. The relatively high draw probability stems from their two stalemates in the last five outings. In any forthcoming World Cup or friendly contest, expect Japan to be in the match, with a win occurring roughly two times in every five attempts under similar conditions.
