Pohang Steelers vs Vissel Kobe Prediction and Betting Tips (03.12.2024)

Command Analysis

Pohang Steelers

South Korea

Current form

Pohang has not been showing outstanding results in recent games. The club has not been able to win in regulation time for four games in a row, and has lost three of them. In the Asian Champions League, the Koreans strictly alternate victories with defeats. Based on these statistics, we can assume that the team will win the upcoming match, but given who they will play, this will be problematic.

Disqualifications and injuries

There are no injured players on the team.

Interesting trends for betting

Pohang have scored in three of their last five home games
The hosts have been conceding for ten games in a row

Estimated lineup: Yan - Wanderson, Lee, Zhong, Shin - Lee, Han, Oberdan, Hong - Louis, Beck.

Vissel Kobe

Japan

Current form

Kobe is showing a high level of play in the Asian Champions League. After four matches played, the current Japanese champion is leading the Eastern Conference standings, having scored 13 out of 15 possible points. The team prefers to play defensively, as evidenced by the statistics of goals scored and conceded. In all the matches played, the visitors scored nine times and conceded three. Despite such successful performances, the club is considered an underdog in the upcoming match.

Disqualifications and injuries

All players are in action.

Interesting trends for betting

Kobe is unbeaten in eight games in a row.
They failed to score in only one of the last ten matches

Estimated lineup: Maekawa-Sakai, Yamakawa, Tuler, Hatsuse-Ideguchi, Ogihara, Ide-Mutoh, Osako, Miyashiro.

Tip and bets

2.8Kobe victory

Kobe is fighting for the top spot in the standings and clearly has no intention of giving it up to Gwangju, which is in second place in the rankings. With all due respect to Pohang, it is far from the form that its upcoming opponent is currently in. There is a feeling that bookmakers underestimate the Japanese club and overestimate the Korean one. We will take advantage of this oversight.

Our prediction is a victory for Kobe with odds of 2.80

1.71both will score

Bet on total

Pohang have scored in all of their Champions League home games, while Kobe have failed to score in only one of their five games played in the tournament. Based on all of this, we'll bet on both the hosts and the visitors scoring.

Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.71

Bet on corners

Even though we expect goals from both teams, they will not forget about defense, because Kobe specializes in such matches, and Pohang is not in the form to dictate the terms of the game. Another bet is that there will not be many corners in the match.

Forecast - total under 8.5 corners with odds of 1.78
