Being able to go from the group stage to the round of sixteen shows that the team does have a strong fighting spirit and aggressiveness. In fact, Johor Bahru's position in the domestic league is much higher than its current position, and its offensive and defensive capabilities are no worse than those of Urawa Red Diamonds, which may not even be possible for Urawa Red Diamonds to do, given that the team has killed two powerful teams in the group stage.
However, this match has encountered unprecedented difficulties, mainly due to the lack of home field advantage. The match is being held domestically, with Johor Bahru being the 'host' and the 'guest', lacking the support of the off-field 'factor'. In addition, Urawa Red Diamonds basically have no big pursuit in the league this season, and will have to sprint to a higher goal on the field, so it's easier to inspire the players' fighting spirit. All in all, there are signs that the scales are tipped in favor of Urawa Red Diamonds.
