Two very different games, both with a side that controls the way the match is played. In the continental tie the home side owns the ball and the territory, while the visitors have struggled to turn shots into goals. In the Korean league game the home side is the steadier team in the table and the margins, while the visitors have been leaking points on the road.
Shanghai Port: they hold close to sixty percent of the ball and create around 1.7 expected goals a game, and they scored seven in their first two continental games. Cong An Ha Noi have scored once in two games and conceded five, and most of their shots came while chasing the game. Their route is a counter or a set piece, but they have not scored from open play in Asia. No absence news was available, so this rests on how both teams have played. That's why I'm siding with Shanghai Port at home to win.
Seoul Knights against KCC Egis: the Knights are second with a positive margin per game, while KCC are ninth with a clearly negative one and have conceded 96 and 97 in their latest road losses. The Knights are not a hot-shooting team, but they win the late minutes and they have the home floor. KCC's three-point shooting is what keeps them alive, and that is the thing most likely to cool. I'm siding with the Seoul Knights to win by a clear margin at home.
