Dan’en slave territory: Nasaf’s “fine” taste of Aian
I think a 0-0 draw in the first round is beneficial to both sides, because Al Ain only needs a home win to advance to the top 8 of this AFC Champions League, and Nassaf can also maintain his record of reaching the top 8 for the first time. Strong hope.
Al Ain created a lot of chances in the first leg of the Round of 16, not only hitting the post, but also forcing Nasaf’s goalkeeper to make some great saves, so they probably should have come back with a win. Their pair of wingers Sufian Rahimi and Jonadas Santos were quite dangerous and almost scored. I expect that they will once again cause problems on offense this game, and Nasav’s pair of goalkeepers will have to keep a close eye on them.
Gezunaba will lead the attack from the front and try to find space in the penalty area. He is the top scorer in the UAE League and has scored 5 goals in the AFC Champions League, so he is the team’s most threatening player.
On the other side, Nasav definitely has a chance to advance. They are a solid team, and every player will keep working hard for his teammates. However, I feel that their front line lacks offensive firepower.
If Adisuli Goff hadn’t missed a great opportunity in the first round, he should have scored. I don’t think Nasav will create too many opportunities in this game, so if he and his forward partner Zugas get the opportunity, they must take advantage of it and convert it into goals.
If Stiegoff can make accurate passes during dead-ball attacks, he may also be a threat, especially since Ayan does not often perform convincing performances in defense.
I think the number of goals scored in this game is low, with a maximum difference of 1 goal. I predict that Nasav will eventually win an upset and get a ticket to the top 8.
