Shanghai Shenhua host Shandong Taishan at Shanghai Stadium, Shanghai on Saturday, Aug 29 at 1:35 PM in the Super League.
Shanghai Shenhua come into this fixture out of form (0W 2L recently). Shandong Taishan, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 2L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.
Head-to-head records offer little separation — Shanghai Shenhua and Shandong Taishan have split their 10 meetings almost evenly (5W–1D–4W). Their last encounter ended in Shanghai Shenhua won 1–4. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 4.2 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Shanghai Shenhua a slight edge, but Shandong Taishan are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
