Lion City Sailors vs Daegu prediction, preview, team news and more

Lion City Sailors will take on Daegu in the final of the AFC Champions League group stages on Saturday.

Daegu will come into this game on the back of a convincing 4-0 win over Chinese outfit Shangdong Taishan. The win has put them on the top of Group F and even a draw in their final game will be sufficient to see them through.

Their rivals, on the other hand, were at the receiving end of a 6-0 mauling at the hands of Urawa Red Diamonds on Wednesday. The defeat has now seriously jeopardized their own prospects of progression.

Lion City Sailors vs Daegu Prediction

The hosts will be under severe pressure going into this fixture and only a hefty win can help them make it to the next round. Their defense was mercilessly exposed by AFC Champions League veterans Urawa and now they will only have three days to put that behind them.

Their rivals sit pretty at the top of the table and will be fully aware of the fact that a draw will be sufficient to put the group to bed.

A draw is on the cards.
