Al-Ain vs Yokohama F.Marinos Betting Tips: BTTS / Over 2.5
Trailing 2:1 from the first leg in Japan, Al-Ain comes into Saturday's return leg as underdogs to lift their first-ever AFC Champions League title.
However, the hosts do have a strong home record in this competition with victories picked up in five of six games played this season. Hernan Crespo´s men secured their place in the final with a thrilling 5:4 semi-final win against Saudi opponents Al Hilal after picking up a 4:2 win at this venue in the first-leg.
High-scoring outcomes have been a regular theme of Al-Ain´s results in this competition. The Qatar based side have seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored in 10 of their last 12 AFC Champions League matches including five of six games played on home soil.
Visiting Yokohama arrive in Qatar knowing they can secure the title should they avoid defeat on Saturday. However, Harry Kewell´s side have struggled on their travels in recent weeks, failing to win any of their last five road trips.
Like Al-Ain, high-scoring outcomes have occurred in a large proportion of the Japanese side´s recent matches. Yokohama saw BTTS in eight of their last nine matches, while over 2.5 goals also occurred in five of their seven most recent fixtures.
In this competition, Yokohama saw BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five away matches while they failed to keep a clean sheet in seven of their last eight away continental trips.
With everything on the line, and Al-Ain knowing only a win will do, I expect an entertaining contest with chances at both ends. BTTS looks a great choice for this final, with Al-Ain also expected to score two goals or more
