Tianjin Teda vs Chongqing Lifan Preview
Tianjin and Chongqing are two teams on something of a downward spiral at the moment but Tianjin have been strong at home this season and have won the last three without conceding a goal, it’s just their away form letting them down. That home form should give them confidence against a Chongqing side struggling to record a win on the road and scoring an average of just one goal per game.
| Form All Games Last 5 | Average Goals Scored | Average Goals Conceded | |
| Tianjn | LWWWL | 0.71 | 0.71 |
| Chongqing | WLWLL | 1.00 | 1.67 |
Picks?
We’ll be picking players from all positions from Tianjin and none from Chongqing.
Hebei China Fortune FC vs Shanghai SIPG Preview
Hebei are one of the form teams in the CSL at the moment and sit second in the league with four wins, a draw and a loss from their last six matches; they have been consistent home and away in terms of points and goalscoring so we expect them to be just too good for a Shanghai team in fourth place but without a win in six. Shanghai have only been defeated three times all season but that grit won’t help them here.
| Form All Games Last 5 | Average Goals Scored | Average Goals Conceded | |
| Hebei | WWDWW | 1.71 | 1.14 |
| Shanghai | LDDLL | 1.00 | 1.75 |
Picks?
We predict a win but not necessarily a clean sheet for Hebei so go for midfielders and strikers from the home team; avoid Shanghai players.
Shandong Luneng vs Guangzhou Evergrande Preview
Bottom of the league Shandong host league leaders Guangzhou on Sunday and this looks like a relatively easy trip for Guangzhou who have won eleven of their fifteen games so far, scoring twenty two goals in the process. They average two goals per game away from home and their defence should be confident against a Shandong side who’ve scored just thirteen goals all season.
| Form All Games Last 5 | Average Goals Scored | Average Goals Conceded | |
| Shandong | DLDDL | 1.43 | 1.57 |
| Guangzhou | WWDDW | 2.33 | 0.67 |
Picks?
Go for Guangzhou players from any position but avoid those from Shandong.
