AFC Champions League Elite
Japan's Vissel sit a point behind Ulsan HD of Korea Republic, with both determined to boost their Round of 16 hopes with victory.
Vissel will be desperate to bounce back from their 4-3 defeat to Gwangwon FC, with the Korea Republic side racing to 3-0 lead before scoring a last gasp winner two weeks ago.
That ended Vissel's perfect start to the season and the Japanese champions will be out to show it was a mere blip and will go into the tie having won their most recent meeting with Ulsan - in last season's group stage.

#ACLElite - Preview: Matchday Four
Ulsan have been a totally different outfit this year with the seven points in their haul already more than doubling last season's tally.
More importantly for the two-time Asian champions is that they are defensively tighter, having conceded only twice and the clean sheet in the 1-0 win against Japan's Sanfrecce Hiroshima was their first in 11 matches on the continental stage.
