AFC Champions League Elite - this game comes down to the readiness of two teams arriving in very different shape. Ratchaburi Mitrphol FC just thrashed their opponents at home in the league 3-0, their attack is clicking, while Kyoto Sanga just drew away with goals, 2-2, and their defence still shows clear gaps. Kyoto Sanga control games at home better than they used to, and the pattern of play is expected to see them clearly with more of the ball. Ratchaburi Mitrphol FC come with confidence from their last match, but having to travel away to a team from a stronger league in a continental competition is a different matter from a domestic game. If Ratchaburi Mitrphol FC score first, the game should open up into more of an exchange, and the hosts will have to push high to chase the goal back, which will change the rhythm of the game immediately. But if Kyoto Sanga score first, the game could become one-way traffic with the hosts pressing continuously.
