Readiness of both teams

Melbourne City

Melbourne City (Australia) last game in this competition lost to Vissel Kobe 0-1.

The home team is facing a difficult time on the continental stage. After starting the first two matches in the group stage with defeat in both matches. They lost at home to Sanfrecce Hiroshima 0-2 and lost to Vissel Kobe 0-1, resulting in still no points and no goals scored at all. Their form in the league has been inconsistent lately. Alternating wins and losses in the last 6 games (Won 3, Lost 3).

Buriram United

Buriram United (Thailand) last game in this competition lost to FC Seoul 0-3.

The away team collected 3 points from the first 2 matches in the group stage. After winning at home against Johor Darul Takzim 2-1 and losing to FC Seoul 0-3, the defense is still a point of adjustment. Because 4 goals have been lost, averaging 2 goals per game, away games are considered not very stable because of the last 5 matches in every program, winning only 1 match (draw 2, lose 2) along with conceding 7 goals.

Game analysis: Both teams have problems with consistency. Melbourne City has the advantage of playing at the Melbourne Rectangular Stadium. In the last 5 home matches, they won 3 matches, drew 1, lost 1, scored 8 and conceded 4, while Buriram United has a poor away performance, winning only 1 out of the last 5 matches. But Buriram also has an attacking strategy that is ready to challenge. It is expected that this game will be close.

The two teams last met, Buriram winning 1-0.

Expected result: draw 1-1
