Urawa Red Diamonds vs Hanoi FC Prediction
Hanoi FC meets Urawa Red Diamonds in the second round of the 2023/2024 AFC Champions League group stage. This time the challenge for the Vietnamese representative is bigger than the opening match as their opponent is the reigning Asian champion.
On the day of their Champions League debut in the group stage, Hanoi FC lost 2-4 to Pohang Steelers of Korea. The performance of the capital team clearly showed the limitations when stepping into the big stage but also had bright spots to look forward to.
Hanoi FC's foreign players did not perform well in the opening match.
Hanoi FC used up to 6 foreign players, but their playing quality was not good. The new players had not yet integrated into the team while coach Bozidar Bandovic's tactical choices also had some unreasonable points.
When Hanoi FC made adjustments in the second half, plus the opponent played "loosely" when leading deeply, Nguyen Van Quyet and his teammates played better. Those were positive signals for Hanoi FC to think about points in the next matches in the AFC Champions League.
Urawa Red Diamonds is a successful team in the Japanese cup competition. They have won the AFC Champions League 3 times, the Japanese National Cup 8 times and the Emperor's Cup 2 times.
Urawa Red Diamonds' squad has four players who have played for the national team: Hiroki Sakai, Shusaku Nishikawa, Atsuki Ito and Shinzo Koroki. They use a foreign central defender duo of Alexander Scholz and Marius Hoibraten. The team's best striker is Jose Kante - a Guinea national team player.
Overall, Urawa Red Diamonds is a big challenge and it won't be easy to score points against Hanoi FC.
