The Kawasaki Legionnaires are looking to break the deadlock on the road.
League performance is not so impressive: Kawasaki's performance in the Japan Professional League is moderate, currently ranked 10th, with 55 goals scored, 47 goals conceded, and a goal difference of only 8 goals. Despite having strong players such as Ellison and Daenan Sato, their overall performance has not reached the expected high level, especially in the attacking end, which is a bit weak.
Experienced in AFC Champions League: Kawasaki is a strong team in the Asian Championships that cannot be ignored. They have accumulated a wealth of experience in the AFC Champions League and are good at creating attacking opportunities through ball control and precise passing. Despite the first two rounds of the record of 1 win and 1 loss, but the Kawasaki army's defense can be said to be solid, the average goal conceded is only 0.5, this battle is afraid of Shenhua's offense constitute a serious test.
Away tactics and strategy: Kawasaki Army may adopt a more conservative tactic when playing in the field, relying on solid defense and quick counterattacks to seek scoring opportunities. The team's leading scorer Shin Yamada and foreigner Ellison will support the attacking end, while Marcinho and Taiyo Wakizaka's breakthroughs and insertions on the sides will help the Kawasaki Army's attacking power.
Match Focus: Shenhua is expected to win at home.
Comparing the strength and form of both sides, Shanghai Shenhua has a clear advantage in this battle. Shenhua not only has the advantage of home field, but also has been in hot form recently, with eye-catching performance in both offense and defense. Although Kawasaki has a lot of experience in the AFC Champions League, their offense lacks breakthroughs and their recent form has been a bit sluggish.
Therefore, this match is predicted to be a win for Shanghai Shenhua at home with a strong offense. Although Kawasaki's defense and counter-attacking ability is not to be underestimated, the outcome of the match may be relatively tight, and Shenhua is more likely to win in the end. We expect a narrow victory!
We are looking forward to the third round of the East Asia Zone to see if Shanghai Shenhua can continue their brilliant performance at home, beat Kawasaki Army and present a visual feast for the fans!
