Kawasaki Frontale will play United City at the Lokomotiv Stadium in Tashkent on Friday. This will be the third Group I game of the AFC Champions League.
Kawasaki Frontale will go into the game in great form, winning both their opening group games. Toru Oniki's side are unbeaten this season and are coming off the back of a 7-0 mauling against Beijing Guoan.
They should be confident of extending their unbeaten run when they take on United City on Friday.
United City, on the other hand, have been woeful so far this season. Jason Withe's side are yet to win a group game and will go into the game on Friday off the back of a humiliating 7-0 loss against Daegu FC.
The Golden Boys will have a mammoth task ahead of them if they are to get anything out of the game on Friday.
Kawasaki Frontale have a great chance of extending their lead at the top of Group I with a win against a poor United City team on Friday.
