The Shanghai SIPG of the Brazilians Hulk, Oscar and Elkeson is not only the favorite of the group, but also one of the favorites to win the trophy and made sure to show it from the beginning. After the double at the home of the Japanese champions Kawasaki with 0-1 in the group premiere, he made it 2/2 with an impressive appearance and a 4-1 victory against Melbourne Victory and today against the 2nd of the Ulsan group, he wants the victory that against A large percentage will ensure her qualification and the first place in the group. On Saturday, he entered the championship with his right hand and in an impressive way, dissolving the newly enlightened Dalian Giffang of the newcomers Carasco and Gaitan from Atletico Madrid. So if we count the 1-0 victory in the qualifying round of the tournament against the Thai Changray, the team has the absolute of victories, scoring 14 goals, conceding just 1. This is the main difference of the team with last year, which seems to finds defensive cohesion with Vitor Pereira on the bench, something they lacked last year with Villas Boas, costing her the championship and the cup.
Ulsan remains unbeaten in the group, after the 3-3 draw at Melbourne Victory and the 2-1 victory over Kawasaki and thus gained the lead to fill the 2nd place in the group, against its opponents. The first defeat of the season came in the league premiere and in the home of the permanent champion of the last years Yeonbuk with 2-0, in a match that failed to look competitive and suffered a fair defeat. Today he will go to play massive defense trying to steal the point but I do not expect him to succeed, as in the match with Yeonbuk which lasted only in the first half.
The difference in quality is great this year between the two teams, and since Shanghai has entered with seriousness in the season and with a serious defensive improvement over last year, it is the absolute favorite for victory. I expect to win relatively comfortable and that is why my choice is the ace with the Asian handicap at -1,25.
