The Zhengzhou Hanghai Stadium will host Sunday’s Chinese Super League fixture between Henan and Shanghai Shenhua. The Red Devils are 13th in the league standings, while the Blue Devils are in fifth place. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Henan have earned eight points this season, but owing to their six-point deduction from the CFA to start the campaign, they enter Matchday eight of the CSL with just two points to their name.
The Red Devils won their first two games of the season but are now winless in their last five, following a disappointing goalless draw on the road against Qingdao West Coast in midweek.
Concerningly, the hosts have failed to score in three of their last four league games. They have played three home matches this season and have split the results, one win, one draw, and one loss.
Meanwhile, despite a 10-point deduction, Shanghai Shenhua have been steadily climbing the table week-on-week and could end this weekend as high as fourth if they win this match.
The Flower of Shanghai beat Qingdao Hainiu 2-0 on Wednesday and are now on a four-match win streak. They are one of only three teams yet to lose a league game this season.
The visitors have taken five points from their three away matches this term (W1 D2) and have won their last two league games against this opponent at this venue.
