AFC Champions League: ULS vs KAW Dream11 Prediction, Head to Head, top fantasy picks, playing XI and team news

ULS vs KAW: Ulsan Hyundai, the current holders of the AFC Champions League, will face Japan’s champions Kawasaki Frontale in the Round of 16 on Tuesday, September 14 at 4:30 PM IST at Ulsan Munsu Football Stadium.

ULS vs KAW: Team Preview

The hosts are coming off a goalless draw with Jeonbuk in a K1 League match on Friday. Winners on two occasions Ulsan will attempt to reach the quarter-finals for the fourth time. Ulsan, who won the AFC Champions League undefeated in 2012, repeated the feat in 2020, going all the way to the title without losing a single match. Hong Myung-bo team is also aiming for a third such record at the 2021 championship, having won all six of their Group F matches in Pathum Thani while conceding goals only once. Ulsan Hyundai began their title defence by placing first in Group F with 18 points.

Toru Oniki’s Kawasaki won the J1 League last year and easily carried that success to the continental level, where they dominated the 2021 AFC Champions League group stage, putting the rest of the competition on notice. Kawasaki broke through its opponents in Group I, winning six of six matches and netting 27 goals, just one short of the all-time best set by their countrymen Kashima Antlers. Recently in the quarterfinals of the Japanese League Cup, Kawasaki Frontale held Urawa Reds to a dramatic 3-3 draw at home. Two late goals enabled the visitors to overcome a two-goal deficit and advance on away goals. With 18 points, the Japanese team finished first in Group I and qualified for the knockout stage.

ULS vs KAW Final Prediction:

Kawasaki Frontale’s recent dismal form means they will be less confident in the game than they would have been a few weeks ago. Nonetheless, the Japanese champs have what it takes to return to form. Both teams are aggressive, indicating that this may be a wide-open game with plenty of scoring opportunities. However, Ulsan has a little benefit due to their home advantage and Kawasaki’s poor form, and we expect them to win in an exciting match.
