The season has been rough for Tianjin Teda so far, while Shanghai Shenhua have done well. Will the away team take a new scalp at Kunshan Sports Center Stadium?
- Tianjin Teda have the most conceded goals (8) at home in Super League
- Shanghai Shenhua have the fewest clean sheets (0) in Super League
It's no vacation for neither Tianjin nor Shanghai Shenhua as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
These teams have little in common geographically as Shanghai Shenhua have to travel 1100 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Tianjin Teda form and stats
Three Super League home games done for Tianjin Teda, who are not happy collecting 3 points from these matches.
The home team returns to Kunshan Sports Center Stadium after being equal after 90 minutes with Beijing Guoan (placed 4th) on their last time out; the Super League game ended 0-0. Goalkeeper Shangkun Teng got the top rating on the team in that game; 8.6 out of ten. Teng stopped the opponent with eight saves and topped it up with a clean sheet. The Tianjin goalkeeper Shangkun Teng was crucial in the match against Beijing Guoan last time out, making eight saves.
Ahead of that match, Tianjin won a home game hosting Wuhan Zall (2-1).There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Tianjin Teda as they are travelling to their away game against Shanghai SIPG in the Super League. That match is three days after this one.
Tianjin are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 3 goals in 3 games. As for conceded goals, Tianjin's unpleasant statistic is 8 goals surrendered.
Shanghai Shenhua form and stats
Things could have gone better for Shanghai Shenhua in their Super League away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.
The supporters enjoyed Shanghai's previous game versus Dalian Professional (placed 8th), a Super League 3-2 win played at home. Mingjian Zhao was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.95. The defender Zhao scored one goal, served one assist, hit one key pass and won 5 of 10 duels. The end of the last match, against Dalian Professional, was very satisfying as Mingjian Zhao scored the winning goal deep into overtime.
A 0-1 defeat away at Changchun Yatai before that.The schedule is very tough for Shanghai now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Super League game at Beijing Guoan is waiting in only three days.
Shanghai Shenhua have scored 4 goals on their travels this season, from 3 away games in the league. Shanghai Shenhua have conceded 3 goals in these away matches.
