Beijing Guoan FC have recorded nine wins, four draws, and three losses in their last 16 matches to accumulate 31 points, placing them in fourth place. They hold a slim one-point advantage over 5th-placed Shandong Taishan and are one point adrift of third-placed Chengdu Rongcheng FC 

Approaching this match, the Imperial Guards shoved aside Cangzhou Mighty Lions FC in a resounding 4-0 victory in their most recent match. Prior to that, a sluggish performance saw them succumb to a narrow 2-1 defeat against Henan FC away from home, halting a two-match unbeaten run (W1, D1). Ricardo Soares have won their last two matches across all competitions and will be aiming to build up on this momentum and preserve their fine run of form.

Shandong Taishan have failed to emulate their 2020–21 success when they clinched the league title for the first time since 2010. In the past two seasons, they have lost the title to Wuhan Three Towns, most recently Wuhan Three Towns. With 30 points accumulated from 16 matches, placing them in 5th place, 12 points adrift of first-placed Shanghai Port FC, it seems history is about to repeat itself. 

In the previous round, they failed to capitalize on their status as favorites to secure a comfortable victory against Changchun Yatai FC away from playing out a nail-biting 2-2 draw to share the spoils. Despite that draw, Taishan Dui have now gone ten league matches without defeat (W6, D4), proving themselves a force to be reckoned with. 

• Beijing Guoan FC have lost two of their last 11 matches in the Super League.
• Shandong Taishan is currently on a four-match unbeaten run against Beijing Guoan FC away from home.
• Beijing Guoan FC averages 3 goals per game when playing at home, and Shandong Taishan averages 1.25 goals per game when playing away.

In the last 37 meetings, Beijing Guoan FC have won 7 times, Shandong Taishan have won 12 times, and there have been 18 draws, with the goal difference being 58-44 in favor of Shandong Taishan. 

Shandong Taishan saw their winless run away from home stretch to three matches against Changchun Yatai. However, they still remain a force to be reckoned with on the road, going unbeaten in their last six matches (D4, W2). 

Beijing Guoan, on the other hand, are not a side to be taken lightly considering they approach this match riding a five-match winning streak at home after being on a two-match winless run (L1, D1). Such a tight affair is undeniably on the cards.

Therefore, we anticipate supporting the total corners to exceed 10 as picking up a winner in the full-time market could go sideways.

• Corners - Over 10 for 2.10
• X for 3.85
• Highest Scoring Half - 2nd Half for 1.99
