Round two of the League Two campaign and the contenders have taken their learnings from the first match. Here's the Shangyu Pterosaur - Hunan Xiangtao guide:
- Shangyu Pterosaur have lost all their home matches so far.
- Hunan Xiangtao have lost all their away matches so far.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Shangyu Pterosaur form and stats
Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Shangyu Pterosaur, their manager and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.
Shangyu Pterosaur suffered an unpredictable loss 1-5 against Wuxi Wugou in their previous match, also played at home. Pterosaur were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
Preceding that game was the away draw at Nantong Haimen Codion that finished 2-2.There will be little rest for Shangyu Pterosaur after this match as they are travelling to Dantong Hantong for a League Two game in only four days.
Hunan Xiangtao form and stats
Let's have a look at how Hunan Xiangtao performed last season in the League One: They landed a 16th position in the league table after playing out 2 victories, 6 draws and 22 defeats. In total they scored 16 and conceded 61 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 1 - drew 2 and lost 12 with 8/31 goals scored/conceded. With the Hunan Xiangtao losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.
Two away games in a row for Xiangtao, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-2 versus Dantong Hantong.
A 1-5 loss hosting Hubei Huachuang before that.A new game in only four days for Hunan Xiangtao, the League Two home match versus Nantong Haimen Codion. Busy days.
