Saturday night brings us further action from the Chinese Super League and we take a look ahead to the mid-table clash between Guangzhou R&F and Wuhan Zall as the betting tips continue at the Yuexiushan Stadium.
Guangzhou R&F Prediction- Can Guangzhou remain unbeaten at home?
Guangzhou R&F occupy a mid-table position in 9th place in the Chinese Super League despite not winning their last 2 matches in the domestic top flight.
A 3-1 loss away at Shandong Luneng was followed by a 2-2 draw at home with Hebei CFFC but the hosts will look to extend their unbeaten start at home here this evening.
The hosts have made their Yuexiushan Stadium a veritable fortress so far this season as they’ve posted a home record of 3-2-0 13/8 to date this term.
Only Beijing Guoan and Jiangsu Suning also remain unbeaten at home, and having registered wins against Shanghai Shenhua, Shenzhen and Beijing Renhe so far, Guangzhou look in good shape to continue their form at home in this clash.
Goals have also been a feature of Guangzhou’s success at home this season with the hosts scoring 2 goals in each of their 5 matches at home so far, with prolific striker Zahavi (11 goals) benefitting from this good run.
Wuhan Zall Prediction – Can Wuhan Zall extend unbeaten run?
Wuhan Zall’s fortunes have taken a turn for the better in recent times as the visitors have won 3 of their last 5 matches overall in the Chinese Super League.
This upturn in form have seen Wuhan record wins over Dalian Yifang, Tianjin Tianhai and Shenzhen, although only one of these three wins were registered away from home.
The visitors have registered just 4 wins all season to date, with 3 of these 4 being achieved on home turf at their Dongxihu Sports Centre.
However, Wuan Zall’s away record reads a poor looking 1-0-3 4/8 with their only success to date on the road being the aforementioned win at 11th placed Dalian Yifang.
Defeats at Jiangsu Suning, Shanghai SIPG and Shandong Luneng have prevented Wuhan Zall from climbing further up the Chinese top flight table.
In addition, Wuhan Zall have recorded just the 1 away win from their last 19 away matches at this level which is an appalling record indeed, and they look set for further disappointment this Saturday evening.
Key-Facts – Guangzhou R&F v Wuhan Zall
- Guangzhou R&F remain unbeaten at home after their first 5 matches
- Guangzhou have scored 2 goals or more in each of these 5 home matches
- Wuhan Zall have won just 1 of their last 19 away matches in the CSL
Betting Tips Verdict
Guangzhou R&F have their leading goalscorer Zahavi back up front after being away on international duty with Israel, and the hosts should account for Wuhan Zall here.
