Competition: China PR Super League
Competition: Wed 30.November
Match begins: 11:30 (UTC)
Venue: Jinjiang Sports Center

There is optimism in Shanghai SIPG so far, with their 4th spot in the Super League table and eagerly waiting for Henan Jianye (who are in 7th).

Insights:
  • Shanghai SIPG have the fewest conceded goals in the first half (7) in Super League

These teams have little in common geographically as Henan Jianye have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
