The Shanghai derby will be a key highlight in the Chinese Super League this weekend. Shanghai Shenhua hosts Shanghai Port in a matchday 20 encounter, the two occupying the top two slots in the league. We have a prediction for the match below.

League leaders Shenhua will host the match, seeking to open a seven-point lead on Port. They will be disappointed at their performance in the 4-4 draw with Yukun in the last game.

However, having come from 3-0 down in that game should be a reason to celebrate. That was their fifth straight unbeaten league outing, but the outcome halted their run of four straight wins. Each of their last nine league games had three goals or more.

There’s no doubt that Shenhua’s recent performances have been shaky, and this is what Shanghai Port will want to jump on. The last three meetings between these two haven't gone Shanghai Port’s way, but by their recent performances, there’s a possibility that could change.

The visitors carry into this match a five-game undefeated run. They are coming off a 4-2 win away to Hakka, which marked their fourth win in five league matches.

It was also the ninth straight outing in which they scored two or more goals. The real catch for Port is their performance away from home. In 10 matches on the road, across all competitions, they are unbeaten, with eight wins.
