Two matches, one shared shape: neither back line is settled, and both attacks get their chances. In both games I expect an open, event-rich match rather than a controlled one, where a blank sheet for either side would need a spell of game management that neither team has shown lately.

Line explanation · Handicap · Over/Under · Both teams to score
- Asian handicap is from the home team's side · Home −1 means the home team's score minus 1 decides the result (quarter lines are not used as the main line)
- Over/Under is Over when the combined regulation-time score of both teams is above the line, and Under when it is below
- Both teams to score is “Yes” when both teams score at least 1 goal in regulation time · Extra time and penalty shootouts are not included
