Yokohama F.Marinos vs Shanghai Port Prediction: End of the Road for The Chinese

The second leg of the AFC Champions League Is underway, with Chinese side Shanghai Port traveling to the Nissan Stadium after a first-leg loss at home. Yokohama Marinos will be opportune to demonstrate the full stretch of what home advantage in this perilous tournament feels like.

My personal bias is for the Japanese domiciles to repeat the earlier victory taken in the first leg — when the two sides last played.

The homers have to be careful of a momentum slip since the visitors approach with begrudged intentions after losing the first round.

Recent Tournament Form: W-D-L-L-L

Shanghai Port was on the losing end of a 1-0 contest against Yokohama Marinos in the first leg of the Round of 16. The unforgiving phase of the tournament beams the side that may be on their exit, in the event of a subsequent defeat.

A goal is in deficit for the side and the team needs at least two goals to edge on in this tournament despite huge odds thrown against them if they choose to defy exeat from the league.
