Zhejiang Professional welcome Shanghai Port at Huzhou Olympic Sports Center, Huzhou on Friday, Oct 9 at 2:00 PM in a Super League fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.

Zhejiang Professional come into this fixture out of form (1W 2L recently). Shanghai Port, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 2L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

In 10 previous meetings, Zhejiang Professional lead 2–4 with 4 draws. Their last encounter ended in Zhejiang Professional won 0–3. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Zhejiang Professional a slight edge, but Shanghai Port are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
