Both teams are enjoying a good season so far and games like this could be decisive. Here's the preview for Zhenjiang Huasa - Chengdu Qianbao!
It's no vacation for neither Zhenjiang nor Chengdu Qianbao as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Zhenjiang Huasa form and stats
Overall League One stats at home this season for Zhenjiang Huasa, who have the most clean sheets (6) in League One, are 1-2-2 (wins-draw-losses). Zhenjiang are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Dujiangyan Sports Center Stadium, having lost their two previous games here.
In their previous game, the manager X. Li led his Zhenjiang to a defeat in the League One match away at Hangzhou. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Dujiangyan Sports Center Stadium. A strong away win before that one, visiting Xinjiang Tianshan and winning 1-0.
Zhenjiang are traveling soon after this match as the League One match at Taizhou Yuanda awaits in three days.
Zhenjiang Huasa has scored 5 league goals at home this season, in 5 matches. 7 goals have been conceded.
Chengdu Qianbao form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team, who have the most clean sheets (6) in League One, on their League One travels is 4 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat. Chengdu love their trips these days, as their two previous away games have resulted in victories.
Chengdu had fun at their own home (Dujiangyan Sports Center Stadium) last time out, beating Taizhou Yuanda 2-1. Tang Miao scored. That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Nei Mongol Zhongyou.
Late drama in the previous game, when Tang Miao scored the winning goal three minutes into stoppage time to defeat Taizhou Yuanda.
A quick return to home after this game, as Chengdu are hosting Meizhou Hakka in the League One only four days away.
Chengdu has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 8 goals from 5 games. It's not easy to score on Chengdu as they have only conceded 4 goals from these away games.
