There is no doubt that Aaan is a strong team with a long history in the Asian Champions League, but now they are in for a tough battle in the top eight. In terms of financial resources, they really struggle to compete with the biggest clubs in Saudi Arabia.
However, there is always a chance of a blowout in soccer, and Iaan has an excellent goal scorer with a very high reach in his team, Gezunaba. He scored an unbelievable first time goal against Nassaf, which showed his worth, so Ainas' center back Rapodi will have to keep a close eye on him.
Sufi Enrahimy is another big threat for Iaen. He's a great presence in front of the goal and can create chances for his teammates as well as score himself, so I think he's going to be a problem for the Ainas defense.
Kristanos Ronaldo will rightly be the center of attention for Ainas, and with a goal in the first leg of the Round of 16, he'll be eager to score more goals. Aien's defense isn't very solid, so I think Kristanul Ronaldo and Telesca will give them trouble in the high-flying attacks.
In addition, Posovic is also a very influential player in Ainas' squad. He will play an important role in the team as he is a smart player who can help the team's offense, whether it's by distributing the ball to the side or by passing the ball through the middle of the field.
With Shadiovanni and Odavio also in the fray, they have a variety of offensive options, but a limited number of wideouts. In other words, not every player is available.
In a home game, Iaan will have a potent offense, but Ainas is strong at every position, so I expect them to win the wave as a roadie today and lead the first round.
