Al-Ain FC VS Al-Hilal Saudi FC

Al Ain and Al Hilal lock horns in this AFC Champions League Playoffs semi-finals 1st leg battle at Tahnoun Bin Mohamed Stadium very early Wednesday morning Beijing time  Football fans and us serious bettors – with a long-term profit in mind - can expect a match of good quality by this league's standards here. Most importantly my fans and I have yet another lucrative betting opportunity here! The stakes are skyhigh here but there is still a significant difference in class between these two teams! Al Ain come from The United Arab Emirates – Al Hilal are a Saudi Arabian team. When analyzing this game we have to keep in mind that The Saudi Professional League is of much better quality than the UAE League. A pretty big number of extremely good and famous players earn their salaries in Saudi Arabia – for example Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo! The level of this league has significantly improved during the past a couple of years. Al Hilal have been a dominant team in this league this season. Indeed, they have grabbed a whopping 77 points in 27 games. Moreover, they have won 25 of the 27 matches. What a stunningly good record that is! They have netted the ball 83 times, which is the highest number in this league. They have allowed only 17 goals – this is the lowest number in the Saudi Pro League. It is hard to write anything negative about them!

Al Ain finished in 2nd place last season, only three points behind Shabab Al Ahli Dubai. This season they have been somewhat disappointing. Indeed, they occupy the 3rd place in the standings with only 36 points in their pocket. Al Wasl, the current leaders, have grabbed 51 points. Al Ain have been in poor form recently, winning only one of their last seven games. Moreover they have lost twice and taken two draws in their last four games. In their last game they faced Al Jazira, currently in 8th place, at home as very clear favourites – priced around 1.55 to win by the bookies. It was, however, a pretty balanced match as a whole. The visitors had 51% ball possession and recorded more shots on goal. Al Ain had more goal attempts (13-12) though. Al Jazira generated more in expected goals (xG) – 0.86-0.55 to be precise. Before this they created a big number of scoring chances but lost to Al Nasr (6th place) at home 1-3. Al Ain's defence looked surprisingly shaky in this game. Furthermore, on the 3rd of this month they were heavy favourites away from home against Ittihad Kalba in a Presidents Cup clash but lost 1-2. I need to mention that Kalba are, in all honesty, a pretty limited team, currently in 9th place in the standings.

Al Hilal have won 37 (!) matches in a row and have a massive edge over the hosts in all areas of the game. I believe they will be aggressive even if it is an away game. They are not known for "playing it safe" and often want to keep entertaining the fans by scoring (more) goals. Some of their players can also be even a little selfish and want to score as many goals as possible. Well, they can afford this as a team as they are simply so good - usually superior compared to the opponent.  Al Ain do not have very loud fans but of course the home advantage is still there though. Some Al Hilal fans are expected to be cheering for their team at the stadium as well. Saudi Arabia does, after all, have a pretty good football culture and Al Hilal have a strong fan-base. The very skilled and fast Brazilian forward Malcolm as well as Saudi national Al-Dawsari are the players for my fans to watch very closely here. Yes, a world-class player, Neymar, is out but the Saudi team have a big number of very good players in the squad. In their last game they crushed Al Ittihad, who are a pretty dangerous team, 4-1 in the Saudi Super Cup Final at a neutral location. Al Hilal recorded many more goal attempts (18-5), shots on goal, corner kicks (8-1), attacks and dangerous attacks. Moreover, they generated 2.98 in xG – Al Ittihad managed only 1.12. Before this they defeated C. Ronaldo's Al Nassr 2-1 - generating 2.66 in xG – the opponent managed only 0.54. Based on the events of the pitch they should have won the game by a margin of at least two goals. Al Hilal are the massively bigger club here in terms of players' estimated total market value – according to a reliable source, Transfermarkt.com. The Al Hilal squad is valued at close to 250 million euros! The Al Ain players are valued at a total of some 35 million.. Odds of around 1.55 are widely available on the away win and we will gladly bet on that! They have a 73% chance of winning this match.

艾因VS希拉尔沙特FC

北京时间周三凌晨，阿尔·艾因和阿尔·希拉尔将在塔努·本·穆罕默德体育场展开亚冠冠军联赛半决赛首回合的激战。足球迷和我们这些着眼长远利益的认真投注者，可以期待一场以亚冠联赛标准来看的高质量比赛。最重要的是，我和我的粉丝在这里又有了一个赚钱的赌博机会!这里的赌注很高，但这两支球队之间仍然有明显的阶级差异!阿尔艾因来自阿拉伯联合酋长国——阿尔希拉尔是一支沙特阿拉伯球队。在分析这场比赛时，我们必须记住沙特职业联赛的质量要比阿联酋联赛高得多。相当多非常优秀和著名的球员在沙特阿拉伯赚取薪水——例如卡里姆·本泽马和克里斯蒂亚诺·罗纳尔多!在过去的几年里，这个联赛的水平有了显著的提高。阿尔-希拉尔本赛季在这个联盟中占据统治地位。事实上，他们在27场比赛中拿到了惊人的77分。此外，他们赢得了27场比赛中的25场。这是一个多么惊人的好记录啊!他们有83次进球，这是联盟中最高的。他们只丢了17个球，这是沙特职业联赛中最少的。很难写任何负面的东西!

Al Ain上赛季排名第二，仅落后Shabab Al Ahli Dubai三分。本赛季他们的表现有些令人失望。事实上，他们仅以36分的积分排在积分榜的第三位。目前的领跑者阿尔·瓦斯尔获得了51分。阿尔艾因最近状态不佳，最近7场比赛只赢了1场。此外，他们在最近4场比赛中2负2平。在他们的上一场比赛中，他们面对的是目前排名第八的半岛电视台(Al Jazira)，这是一个非常明显的热门球队——博彩公司开出的1.55左右的赔率。然而，从整体上看，这是一场相当平衡的比赛。客队有51%的控球率，射门次数也更多。艾因的进球次数更多(13-12次)。Al Jazira创造了更多的预期进球(xG)——准确地说是0.86-0.55。在此之前，他们创造了大量的得分机会，但在主场1-3输给了阿尔纳斯尔(第6名)。阿尔艾因的防守在这场比赛中看起来出奇的不稳定。此外，在本月3日的总统杯比赛中，他们在客场对阵伊蒂哈德·卡尔巴(Ittihad Kalba)时是大热门，但以1比2输掉了比赛。我需要提到的是，说实话，卡尔巴是一支相当有限的球队，目前排名第九。

希拉里已经连续赢了37场比赛，在比赛的各个方面都比东道主有很大的优势。我相信他们会很有侵略性，即使这是客场比赛。他们不以“谨慎行事”著称，经常想通过进球(更多)来娱乐球迷。他们的一些球员甚至有点自私，想要进尽可能多的球。好吧，作为一支球队，他们可以负担得起，因为他们太优秀了——通常比对手更优秀。阿尔艾因的球迷不是很大声，但当然主场优势依然存在。一些阿尔希拉尔的球迷预计也会在体育场为他们的球队加油。毕竟，沙特阿拉伯拥有非常好的足球文化，而阿尔希拉尔拥有强大的球迷基础。技术精湛、速度快的巴西前锋马尔科姆，以及沙特国家队的达萨里，都是我的球迷在这里密切关注的球员。是的，世界级球员内马尔(Neymar)缺阵了，但沙特队有很多非常优秀的球员。在上一场比赛中，他们在沙特超级杯决赛中以4比1击败了一支相当危险的球队阿尔伊蒂哈德。希拉尔的进球次数(18胜5负)、射正、角球次数(8胜1负)、进攻和危险进攻次数更多。此外，他们在xG中产生了2.98个，而伊蒂哈德只产生了1.12个。在此之前，他们以2比1击败c·罗纳尔多的阿尔·纳赛尔，在xG中创造了2.66个进球，而对手只创造了0.54个进球。根据场上的情况，他们本应该以至少两球的优势赢得比赛。根据可靠的消息来源Transfermarkt.com，从球员的总市场价值来看，阿尔希拉尔是大得多的俱乐部。阿尔希拉尔队的身价接近2.5亿欧元!Ain球员的身价总计约为3500万英镑。大约1.55的赔率是广泛可用的客场胜利，我们将很乐意打赌!他们有73%的机会赢得这场比赛。
