1.50Tip and bets
In the last five matches of the Asian Champions League, Kobe scored against their opponents, but conceded in three of the six matches played. In the last four games of the tournament, Shanghai Port both scored against opponents and could not defend to zero. We are inclined to believe that this match will not be boring and that two opponents will be able to score.
Our forecast is that both will score with a coefficient of 1.74
Betting on the outcome
The upcoming match is important for both teams, but the Japanese club will hold the meeting on its own field, and, as you know, with local fans, it usually does not lose points against teams that are not above the playing class. Shanghai Port has been doing well lately, but we are still inclined to believe that the club will not be able to take points in this most difficult match.
Our prediction is that Kobe will win by a factor of 1.50
Betting on corners
Judging by our description, the match should turn out to be dangerous for scoring chances, and, as we believe, the opponents will make a lot of serves from the corner flag for two.
Our forecast is a total of more than 9.5 corners in 1.90
