This is a vital battle in the "wrong" end of the League One, with both Shanghai Jiading and Dongguan United going through more angst than glee. This match is a typical "six-pointer" with the home team at 15th and the visitors in 11th position.
- Shanghai Jiading have the most conceded goals in the second half (13) in League One
- Dongguan United have yet to win a game away.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
