This AFC Champions League Elite match brings Shanghai Port up against Công an Hà Nội, two teams from different leagues who come into it off very different moods from their most recent outings. Shanghai Port thrashed their opponents 6-4 at home in this competition, while Công an Hà Nội lost 0-1 away in the same cup competition in mid-October. Shanghai Port have won two in a row, and in their last five matches they have won four of them by at least one goal. Their attack can be trusted, but a defence that has conceded 36 goals in 29 league games is a warning that they never quite shut up shop. Công an Hà Nội, meanwhile, are without a win in 3 straight, losing and drawing their last two in the league, but their defence is not in bad shape, conceding only 3 goals in 5 league matches. The pattern should be Shanghai Port dominating the ball and pushing high, in the style measured across their last 10 matches (58.8% possession), while Công an Hà Nội sit deep and wait to counter. The first half may stay tight, but after the break the hosts should step it up and find more chances, especially in the 46-60 minute window where they score most often across their last 30 matches.
