Seongnam Ilhwa Chunma v Melbourne Victory
Verdict: The fate of both these sides is already sealed as Seongnam have already qualified to the next round of the AFC Champions League while Melbourne are already out with 4pts from a possible 15.
Seongnam has a very good home record in the AFC, undefeated in 7 games and winning 6 of them. In addition, Seongnam won 2-0 in Melbourne so the visitors will definitely be up against it here. In team news, Melbourne manager Ernie Merrick, is treating this game as a pre-season training drill, and will give debuts to several youngsters. The visitors are without their entire strike force (Thompson, Mrdja, Kruse) while experienced central defender, Rodney Vargas, is rested. Melbourne has scored only a single goal in their 5 group matches to date so I struggle to see where they will get their goals from.
Despite nothing riding on this game, I see a distinct class difference and I expect the home side to win comfortably.
Pick: Seongnam -1AH @1.81 (10bet, 10 units)
Seongnam 3 - 2 Melbourne Victory
