Shenzhen form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Shenzhen so far with only 2 points returning home. The records show 0-2-11 (win-draw-lose). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Shenzhen have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 13 consecutive matches without winning on the road.

Shenzhen aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 188 league minutes without a goal. Donkin was the last player to find the net.

Shenzhen might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Changchun Yatai proved too strong as Shenzhen slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Shenzhen Universiade Sports Centre. Guoliang was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.21. The defender Guoliang won 4 of 10 duels.

A 0-5 loss hosting Hangzhou before that.

Nobody expects Shenzhen to collect anything from a game like this. The team has been David versus Goliath 9 times before, with the overall statistics of won 0, draw 1 and lost 8. When defeated, 7 matches have been lost by two or more goals.

Goal-happy betting people should observe that 16 of this side's 19 latest league games have ended with at least three goals.

The attacking power of Shenzhen when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 13 league matches away. Shenzhen can't defend away. 41 goals have been scored by the opposition in 13 matches, an average of more than three per game. You might want to look at the total goal statistics, which can be found on the Statistics tab above.
