LiontipsAl-Wasl vs Al-Sadd. Asian Champions League match prediction and bets
Command Analysis
Current form
In the UAE Championship, Al-Wasl is not performing well this season - only nine points after seven rounds played and an interim seventh place in the table. The team is clearly betting on the Champions League, and there is no margin of safety to successfully play at a high level in several tournaments. In the international arena, Al-Wasl has scored six points in three rounds and is in fifth place in the overall table. It is interesting that the team won two victories away from home, while at home they lost without a chance to Al-Ahli (0:2). In the last round, a 2:1 victory was recorded away from home against Al-Gharafa.

Current form
Al-Sadd is fighting for second place in the Qatar Championship with Al-Ahli. Both clubs have 18 points and are four points behind the leader Al-Duhail. The team is in perfect shape, as evidenced by a series of six victories in all tournaments. In the Champions League, Al-Sadd has earned seven points in three rounds, with which it occupies third place in the table. The team allowed itself the only misfire at the start, when it drew away with Al-Ain (1:1). Then two "dry" victories were recorded. Al-Sadd clearly relies on reliable defense in its game, the players do not take unjustified risks.

7.20Tip and bets
Bookmakers give a slight advantage to the hosts in the upcoming match, which is hard to agree with. Al-Sadd has been more successful this season both in the national championship and in the Asian Champions League. The Qatari team has a reliable defense, having conceded only one goal in three rounds. In addition, Al-Sadd has twice defeated the upcoming opponent in personal meetings. We believe that the guests will score at least one point today.
Our prediction is Al Sadd will not lose at odds of 1.63
Bet on total
When choosing a bet, we start from the guests, who like to "dry" the game and allow little to their opponents near their goal. Al-Sadd has conceded only one goal in three rounds of the Champions League. It is unlikely that the hosts will score more than one goal today.
The second bet is Al-Wasl individual total goals under 1.5 with odds of 1.75
Bet on the first half
Al Sadd have won their last five matches in all tournaments, and in four cases they created a handicap for themselves at the end of the opening 45 minutes. We think the visitors will be closer to winning in the first half today.
Prediction - Al-Sadd win in the first half with Asian handicap (0) with odds of 2.14
