The home team stadium regulars expect a win in this fixture, and the home advantage could be decisive against a stumbling visitor. Meizhou Hakka are in 7th spot while the guesting Hebei CFFC lose sleep at 18th.
- Meizhou Hakka have the most points from losing position (8) in Super League
- Hebei CFFC have the fewest scored goals (9) in Super League
These teams have little in common geographically as Hebei CFFC have to travel 1900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
This has all the signs of an interesting match with lots of spark and excitement as both teams are well revitalized since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Meizhou Hakka form and stats
Meizhou Hakka have played 9 Super League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-2-2 (wins-draws-losses).
A nice win for Meizhou Hakka last time playing, versus Dalian Yifang. That was also a home game and the match ended 4-2 with Cui, Vukanović, Yin and Henrique scoring for the victors. A goal frenzy last time out for Meizhou, with a total of 6 goals in the match against Dalian Yifang. Fun stuff to watch! Vukanović has beaten the opponent goalkeeper in three matches in a row. Impressive! Vukanović, a natural forward, was the highest rated performer for the side in that game, receiving a rating of 8.05 (out of 10). Vukanović scored one goal, served one assist and hit two key passes.
Preceding that match was the home game against Wuhan Three Towns that was lost 1-2.12 goals have been conceded.
Hebei CFFC form and stats
0 wins, 0 draws and 6 losses. That’s the product of Hebei CFFC, who have the fewest scored goals (9) in Super League, playing as the away team in the Super League this season. Football is a nightmare at the moment for Hebei CFFC who have suffered through a eight match losing streak. If there's light at the end of the tunnel it's certainly not visible for the supporters.
Hebei CFFC play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-3 to Hangzhou (placed 6th). Hebei CFFC did not look prepared in the first half against Hangzhou and lost the game during the first 45 minutes. They need to evaluate their pre-match routine before this one. Pan, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.45. Pan won 2 of 3 duels.
A 1-7 loss hosting Changchun Yatai before that.Hebei are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 6 away games. It's worth mentioning that 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. For Hebei CFFC, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
