agree 100%

Tough for Saprissa to win at Pachuca against a much faster team in the high altitude. They did pull it off a few years ago in a similar situation against Pumas,but I think this Pachuca team is much better than that Pumas team, and I look forward to a better effort from Pachuca in Japan this year than last year, assuming they will be CONCACAF's representative.

Pachuca's weakness is defending set pieces, they are awful at that. So I look for Saprissa to try to exploit that in the 2cnd leg. Saprissa are a gritty bunch, but ultimately, i think Pachuca wins the trophy.
