Preview - Group G: Jeonnam Dragons (KOR) v United City FC (PHI)

Pathum Thani: Jeonnam Dragons head coach Jeon Kyeong-joon pledged his side will do everything in their power to fulfill their slim hopes of advancing to the AFC Champions League™ 2022 knockout stage when they face struggling United City FC on Wednesday.

Nika Kacharava's goal in the dying seconds of Sunday’s match against Melbourne City kept their door to the Round of 16 ever-so-slightly ajar, but Jeon is disappointed that his side failed to take all three in a match where the Korean FA Cup winners squandered several scoring chances.

Preview - Group G: Melbourne City FC (AUS) v BG Pathum United (THA)

Pathum Thani: BG Pathum United’s crucial AFC Champions League™ 2022 clash against Melbourne City isn’t only an opportunity to progress to the Round of 16, but a chance to prove they belong at the highest level of the Asian game, according to head coach Makoto Teguramori.

Two points ahead of Melbourne on top of Group G, the Thai League club can book their place in the knockout stage with a win against the A-League champions, while a loss or draw will leave everything riding on the group’s sixth and final Matchday on Saturday. 

With three successive wins under their belt, and key players carefully rotated throughout the last two weeks, BG Pathum arguably come into the clash as slight favourites, and Teguramori believes it offers a golden opportunity to stamp their authority on the competition.
