Shenzhen form and stats
Shenzhen, who have the most conceded goals (41) in Super League, have collected 10 points from their Super League home games so far after 3-1-5.

Shenzhen are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 244 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by Acheampong).
Shenzhen are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-5 away versus Qingdao Jonoon. Shenzhen were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one. Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Hujahmat for missing a penalty kick versus Qingdao Jonoon in the 57th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome. Defender Tian got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.05/10. Tian won 5 of 5 duels.
Heartbreak before that as Shenzhen lost 0-5 at Beijing Guoan's place.The home team are doomed in this game if you believe the odds offered on Shanghai SIPG to win.
