In this AFC Champions League Two fixture, Adelaide United host Lion City Sailors FC, with both sides having just played in this competition in mid-October. Adelaide United won 2-1 away at BG Pathum United, while Lion City Sailors FC won 1-0 away at Wofoo Tai Po. Adelaide United have just lost 2-1 to Sydney in the A-League Men on 25 Oct, but before that they picked up a win in this cup, and the hosts' attack tends to finish its chances later in games more than at other times. Lion City Sailors FC, meanwhile, come in off a 1-0 win in the same competition, and before that drew 1-1 with BG Pathum United at home. The visitors' defence has shown a tendency to concede early in games. This game should be open from the start, as both sides have just won in this competition and need the points for an edge in the group. Adelaide United should control the tempo more and create chances steadily, especially if the visitors' defence keeps letting opponents into central areas as easily as in previous games. The first half may be tight, but after the break the hosts should push on and close out the game.
