Season ticket holders at Hengli Soccer Town #9 Soccerpitch haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Sichuan languishing in the 5th position so far. The guesting Guizhou Zhicheng will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Sichuan and Guizhou Zhicheng.
Sichuan form and stats
The story so far in the League One for Sichuan at their home stadium (Hengli Soccer Town #9 Soccerpitch) is 0 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats. With seven home League One games in a row without a win, the Sichuan fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Shenzhen Ledman game long ago, can be stopped today.
Happy days for Sichuan in their previous game, a League One match away at Xinjiang Tianshan that ended with a 1-0 victory. 1-1 away at Changchun Yatai before that.
The manager Y. Li will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Shenyang Urban in only four days.
The lack of attacking qualities in Sichuan means that they have only scored 2 goals in 5 league home games, less than half a goal per match. On the other hand, Sichuan have conceded 7 goals.
Guizhou Zhicheng form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their League One travels is 1 win, 2 draws and 2 defeats.
Zhicheng play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-0 victory visiting Shenyang Urban. Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Jiangxi Liansheng.
A new game in only three days for Guizhou Zhicheng, the League One home match versus Beijing BG. Busy days.
Guizhou Zhicheng have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 5 league away games 6 goals have been scored. As opposed to that, Zhicheng have seen the ball go into their own net 7 times on the road.
