This looks to be an entertaining match with lots of fun and bustle as both sides are well rested since they last played a game. Let's go!
Hangzhou form and stats
Home games in the League One have been a walk in the park for Hangzhou so far, with 21 points won from 7 matches; 7 wins, 0 draws and 0 losses. The Hangzhou fans aren't used to losing league-games here at Huitang Stadium and will expect new points from this game. Hangzhou has played twelve games in a row here without a defeat.
The home team returns to Huitang Stadium after being equal after 90 minutes with Jiangxi Liansheng (placed 15th) on their last time out; the League One game ended 1-1.
Before that, Hangzhou had a home game versus Shenyang Urban which ended with a victory 1-0.There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Hangzhou as they are travelling to their away game against Nanjing City in the League One. That match is four days after this one.
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (14 in 7 games), Hangzhou's attacking play is working. Defensively Hangzhou have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (1 in 7 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Suzhou Dongwu form and stats
3-0-4 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Suzhou Dongwu in their League One matches away. With the Suzhou losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Suzhou Dongwu, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-2 versus Nanjing City (placed 11th). Suzhou were so close to getting something from the game against Nanjing City, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal one minutes into overtime.
A loss against Jiangxi Liansheng was the result prior to that, in a home game.A quick return to home after this game, as Suzhou Dongwu are hosting Meizhou Hakka in the League One only four days away.
The travelling fans enjoy Suzhou's attacking play in away games, having scored 12 goals in 7 league matches away. Suzhou's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 13 goals from these trips.
