Costa Rica vs Japan live Streaming: On Sunday, Japan will take on Costa Rica at the Ahmed bin Ali Stadium in Group E of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

With a 2-1 victory over Germany, Japan opened their season with a memorable victory. Despite the Samurai Blue scoring two goals within three minutes in the second half, Germany’s lead was short-lived.

During the 75th minute, Ritsu Doan equalized and Takuma Asano scored the winning goal four minutes after coming on as a substitute.

Having been humiliated 7-0 by Spain in their campaign opener, Costa Rica will be hoping for a better performance this time around.

By winning this match, Japan can secure their place in the knockout round. Costa Rica will be eliminated from the competition if they fail to pick up a point in this game.

Japan vs Costa Rica Prediction – live Streaming

This match will also be a chance for Japan to extend their winning streak against Los Ticos. It should be easy for them to continue their winning form here after they started their World Cup campaign with a win.

A win here will secure Japan’s knockout round berth, and they have every incentive to perform at their peak level to avoid a last-day showdown against Spain.

As a result of a 7-0 defeat in the campaign opener, Costa Rica will be looking to bounce back with a vengeance here. Despite their poor record against Japan, we believe the Asian team will win by a narrow margin, despite their poor performance in the campaign opener.
