The Central Coast Mariners brushed Abdish-Ata aside in a 3-0 win at home to take their place in the showpiece final and are in flying form. I'm backing them to win.

Head To Head


This will be the first meeting between the two sides in a competitive match. 

Al Ahed Form 


Al Ahed have not had everything their own way in the AFC Cup, with the Lebanese side coming into to final on the back of two defeats and a draw in their last six outings. 

Their 2-2 draw with Al-Nahda in the semi-finals saw the side dominated by their opponents in the second-leg as they saw just 26% of the ball and took just four shots in comparison to 15 for their hosts. 

They did show how clinical they can be as they scored twice in the 82nd and 87th minutes, allowing them to secure a dramatic 3-2 aggregate win having won the first leg 1-0. 

Central Coast Mariners Form 


The Central Coast Mariners have been excellent in the AFC Cup this season, and they arrive on the back of an 11-game unbeaten run in the competition. 

Their 3-0 win over Abdish-Ata in the last round saw the Aussie side bounce back from a battling 1-1 draw with their opponents in the first-leg. 

The Mariners are also in flying form domestically having secured the regular season title in the A-League in midweek. 

Verdict

I predict that the in-form Mariners will edge past their opponents and lift the AFC Cup.
