A key match in League One as both teams are battling for the top positions. With Changchun Yatai in 1st position and Hangzhou placed 2nd, this promises to be an exciting meeting. Read on to find out more!
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
It's time to recharge all electronic entertainment devices for Hangzhou, who are travelling more than 2100 kilometers to play this game.
Changchun Yatai form and stats
Changchun Yatai, who have the most scored goals (20) in League One, have played 5 League One games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-1-1 (wins-draws-losses).
Nothing to worry about in defence for Changchun, as their goalkeeper Xiaotian Shi has completely shut out the opponents for 209 minutes in the League One.
It's back home for Changchun Yatai, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Taizhou Yuanda away with the result 2-0. Serginho and A. Olanare found the net in that victory. Ahead of that match, Changchun won a home game hosting Meizhou Hakka (1-0).
The match schedule is unforgiving for Changchun as they have a new game in only four days, a League One match thankfully also at home. Zhenjiang Huasa are visiting.
Changchun can score goals in their home matches. After 5 league matches they have found the net 11 times. Changchun Yatai are not conceding a lot of goals here at Dujiangyan Sports Center Stadium in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 4 from 5 matches.
Hangzhou form and stats
The visitors, who have the the best goal difference (+6) away in League One, are W2-D3-L0 on the road this term. That's in the League One.
Two away games in a row for Hangzhou, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 2-4 versus Meizhou Hakka in the League One. A home win before that, celebrating 2-0 vs Zhenjiang Huasa.
As you can tell from the result, the match against Meizhou Hakka was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?
A quick return to home after this game, as Hangzhou are hosting Chengdu Qianbao in the League One only three days away.
Hangzhou have scored more than twice on average per away game (in the league), an impressive attacking display. They have 11 goals from 5 away matches. Hangzhou have conceded 5 goals in these away matches.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: two wins for Changchun, five draws and three wins for Hangzhou. Over 2,5 goals: four times; under 2,5 goals: six games.Changchun Yatai missing players
