Meizhou Hakka form and stats

4-0-1 (win-draw-lost) are the League One numbers at home for Meizhou Hakka so far this season. The team is doing great wherever they are playing as Meizhou has won five games in a row. The Heilongjiang Lava Spring match was the last time out without a victory.

Nothing to worry about in defence for Meizhou, as their goalkeeper Yu Hou has completely shut out the opponents for 234 minutes in the League One.

A strong away win for Meizhou against Jiangxi Liansheng the last match, as C. Egbuchunam (2), Liang Xueming and Cui Wei were on target. As mentioned above, Meizhou "killed" Jiangxi Liansheng in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against Shenyang Urban.

Meizhou Hakka are showing their attacking force in their league home games this season, scoring more than 2,5 goals per game on average (13 goals in 5 games). On the other hand, Meizhou Hakka have conceded 5 goals.

Suzhou Dongwu form and stats

The visitors are W3-D0-L2 on the road this term. That's in the League One.

Suzhou have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 268 minutes ago. Hu Mingfei was the goal scorer.

Suzhou Dongwu's previous game was their home loss versus Hangzhou (0-1).

A draw for Suzhou before that, at their own venue hosting Nanjing City (0-0).

A quick return to home after this game, as Suzhou Dongwu are hosting Jiangxi Liansheng in the League One only four days away.

With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, Suzhou are regular goalscorers on their travels. Suzhou Dongwu's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 8 goals from these trips.
