Analysis Shenhua

The home team makes its debut in this edition of the AFC Champions League with the intention of getting a positive result, using the home advantage in their favour. In their last match, for the CSL, they got an away win against Zhejiang by (3‑4). In the last 10 home matches Shenhua has won 8 and tied 2. Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in all of the last 10 matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 14 of the last 16 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 5 of their 15 matches, but have been able to turn the score around in 3. In the last 16 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 4 of their 9 goals between minutes (0'‑15').

Shanghai Shenhua will look to control the match in this round. We expect a team that will take the initiative, seeking out attacking opportunities with a good deal of intelligence, aiming to surprise their opponents early on.

Analysis Pohang

The team plays its first match in this edition of the AFC Champions League with the intention of getting a positive away result. In their last match, for the K League 1, they got an away loss against Gwangju by (2‑1). In the last 10 away matches Pohang has won 2, tied 3 and lost 5. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 14 of their 33 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Pohang Steelers are aiming to pick up points away from home in this round, and to do so, they will need to play with great intelligence. We expect a team pressing hard and looking to exploit the open spaces to launch quick attacking moves and try to catch their opponents off guard.
