Shenzhen form and stats

Shenzhen have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Super League, after 2-1-6 (9 played). With the Shenzhen losing streak of five defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

Two away games in a row for Shenzhen, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-5 versus Dalian Professional. Shenzhen lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 1-5 beating and focus on this one. Midfielder Mi was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.4. Mi served one assist and hit one key pass.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Wuhan Three Towns wasn't a success with a 1-5 loss.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Shenzhen have scored 10 goals in 9 league games away. People interested in "over 2,5 goals" betting will like to know that Shenzhen concede an average of more than 2,5 goals per away match all on their own. It's worth mentioning that 14 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
