Both teams are enjoying a good season so far and games like this could be decisive. Here's the preview for Chengdu Qianbao - Meizhou Hakka!
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.
Chengdu Qianbao form and stats
4 victories, 1 draw and 0 defeats. That’s what Chengdu Qianbao, who have the most scored goals (15) in League One, have to build on here at Shuangliu Sports Centre in the League One. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Shuangliu Sports Centre.
Chengdu shared the glory with Zhenjiang Huasa in their last match, an away game that ended all square 1-1. Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Taizhou Yuanda.
The manager J. Granero Granero will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Hangzhou in only three days.
Chengdu has scored 7 league goals at home this season, in 5 matches. Chengdu are not conceding a lot of goals here at Shuangliu Sports Centre in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 3 from 5 matches.
Meizhou Hakka form and stats
3 wins, 2 draws and 0 losses. That’s the product of Meizhou Hakka playing as the away team in the League One this season.
Meizhou Hakka had fun at their own home (Shuangliu Sports Centre) last time out, beating Hangzhou 4-2. C. Egbuchunam, Guo Yi and L. Doumbouya (2) scored. Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Changchun Yatai's place.
As you can tell from the result, the match against Hangzhou was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?
After this away game Meizhou return home for a League One game against Taizhou Yuanda. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Meizhou have scored more than twice on average per away game (in the league), an impressive attacking display. They have 10 goals from 5 away matches. It's not easy to score on Meizhou as they have only conceded 3 goals from these away games.
