Three Super League home games done for Henan Jianye, who are not happy collecting 2 points from these matches. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Jianye, who played 1-1 against Guangzhou Evergrande. That match was also played at this venue (Zhengzhou Hanghai Stadium). Henrique Dourado, who plays in attack, was the top performer for the team in that game, scoring a rating of 7.45 (out of 10). Dourado scored one goal and hit one key pass.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Chongqing Dangdai Lifan (2-3).The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Jianye as they are travelling to their away game against Guangzhou R&F in the Super League. That match is three days after this one.

Qingdao had fun at their own home (Zhengzhou Hanghai Stadium) last time out, beating Chongqing Dangdai Lifan 1-0. Jian Liu scored. Denis Popovič got a match rating of 7.45 in that game, top player of the team. Popovič hit three key passes, dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 39 successful passes (of 42 total). World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager J. Wu when Jian Liu scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 46th minute. The end of the last match, against Chongqing Dangdai Lifan, was very satisfying as Jian Liu scored the winning goal deep into overtime.
Prior to that match, the Qingdao Hainiu manager J. Wu faced defeat when travelling to Shandong Luneng and losing 0-2.Qingdao Hainiu are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, one draw and six defeats. From a total of eight matches.
After this away game Qingdao return home for a Super League game against Guangzhou Evergrande. That game is only three sleeps after this.
It's early days yet, but Qingdao Hainiu has scored 0 and conceded 2 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
