Kawasaki Frontale vs Shanghai Shenhua Prediction, lineups, betting tips and odds
The visitors will be coming in with a one-goal lead.
Kawasaki Frontale are all set to take on Shanghai Shenhua in the second leg of the AFC Champions League 2024-25 round of 16 at home. They were unable to score any goals in the first leg because of their poor attacking rate. Shanghai Shenhua took a lead after Kota Takai of Kawasaki scored an own goal.
The hosts will be under pressure as they are down by a goal. They will have to work hard and will have to come up with a better attacking rate so that they might have a chance by scoring a goal or two. They defended decently but Kawasaki Frontale will have to do better here.
The visitors will be happy coming into the second leg. As they have a one-goal advantage, Shanghai Shenhua will be looking to score more goals here. The visiting team should not let their defence loose as the hosts will be looking to get through here.
