Preview
Gangwon and Shenhua meet at Chuncheon Songam Stadium, in a match for this stage of the AFC Champions League (East). According to our data, there is no recent record of direct clashes between the two teams. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Gangwon

The home team makes its debut in this edition of the AFC Champions League with the intention of getting a positive result, using the home advantage in their favour. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 15 goals scored and 14 conceded; against 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 17 goals scored and 21 conceded. In their last match, for the K League 1, they got a home win against Seoul by (3‑2). In the last 10 home matches Gangwon has won 3, tied 4 and lost 3. Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 9 of the last 22 matches have ended ended with Under 1,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 4 of their 15 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 20 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 9 of their 21 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Gangwon, representing South Korea, is a team still seeking to establish itself as a solid force on the continental stage. With a young core and a style of play focused on tactical discipline and pace on the flanks, the team performs well at home, where it can better exploit the dynamism of its midfielders and the movement of its attackers. Its defensive system, despite being well-trained, still presents some instability against teams with more experience and possession. Gangwon should try to impose a high tempo early on, taking advantage of the home advantage and the good physical preparation typical of Korean teams. However, the lack of internationally renowned players or players with experience abroad can weigh negatively when the level of demands increases, as is the case in a continental competition.


Confirmed Lineup: Kwang-yeon Lee, Hyun-tae Jo, Ho-yeong Park, Chul Hong, Kang-gook Kim, Dae-woo Kim , Bon-cheul Goo, Do-hyun Kim, Byeong-chan Choe, Vitor Gabriel, Il-lok Yun.
Coach: J. Yoon.

Analysis Shenhua

The team plays its first match in this edition of the AFC Champions League with the intention of getting a positive away result. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 23 goals scored and 19 conceded; against 12 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss at their stadium, with 43 goals scored and 21 conceded. In their last match, for the CSL, they got a home tie against Shandong Taishan by (3‑3). In the last 10 away matches Shenhua has won 5, tied 2 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 16 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 9 of their 23 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Shanghai Shenhua, one of China's most traditional clubs, arrives at this edition of the AFC Champions League with the mission of regaining its relevance on the international stage. Although Chinese football has faced several difficulties in recent years, Shanghai still maintains a competitive core, with experienced players and some foreigners who make a difference in the final minutes. The Chinese team is technically superior to Gangwon, especially in attack, where they have forwards capable of finishing with precision even when being marked. However, the team sometimes suffers from a lack of rhythm and defensive organization issues, which can be exploited by fast and direct opponents. Their approach away from home is generally more reactive, but that doesn't prevent Shanghai from controlling the game through possession and physical imposition.


Confirmed Lineup: Yaxiong Bao, Wu Qipeng, Shilong Wang, Shunkai Jin, Zexiang Yang, Chenjie Zhu, Tianyi Gao, Haoyu Yang, Haoyang Xu, João Carlos Teixeira, Liu Chengyu.
Coach: K. Choi.
