Super League: What this game might lack in glamour it should make up for in pace and dedication. Let's go: Changchun Yatai - Shenzhen!
- Shenzhen have the most conceded goals (25) away in Super League
Shenzhen have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 3000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Changchun Yatai and Shenzhen should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Changchun Yatai form and stats
Changchun Yatai's struggle is real here at Changchun's People Stadium with only 6 points collected from 6 Super League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-3-2. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Changchun Yatai, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.
The Changchun fans got no joy from their last match, also played here at Changchun's People Stadium: A 0-1 defeat against Chengdu Rongcheng (placed 6th). The first setback in the shape of a loss after going unbeaten through four league games. Serginho (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.65/10. Serginho hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.
In the game before, an away victory match versus Cangzhou Mighty Lions with a 2-1 scoreline.Observe: 8 of the most recent 10 league matches from this club have had goals from both sides.
Changchun Yatai has scored 7 league goals at home this season, in 6 matches.
Shenzhen form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Shenzhen so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 2-1-6 (win-draw-lose). With the Shenzhen losing streak of five defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.
Shenzhen play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-5 to Dalian Yifang (placed 14th). As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Dalian Yifang was particularly ugly (1-5). The humiliation is still top of mind. Midfield player Mi was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.44/10. Mi served one assist and hit one key pass.
Prior to that match, the Shenzhen manager Lee faced defeat when travelling to Wuhan Three Towns and losing 1-5.Shenzhen have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 9 league away games 10 goals have been scored. Shenzhen are struggling defensively in their away games, having conceded 10 goals in these matches.
