Guangzhou R&F vs Dalian Yifang Prediction: Expect a few goals

For those not aware of Dalian’s dilemma, the team struggled tremendously in 2021. This year, they replaced another team on the roster, and are happily on their way to stardom. However, Guangzhou seems to be struggling and is sitting at number 17 on their league table. This is one level away from the bottom of their league and places them in the relegation stage. 

Unfortunately for R&F, the team has lost consistently in all their previous 5 matches. Incidentally, all except one match were lost on home ground. This is saddening, considering their next game will be at home too. Their other loss, away, was to Dalian, the team they will be hosting tomorrow. Dalian does not have a shining performance away either. However, Guangzhou does not seem to be putting up much of a challenge at the moment. With both teams struggling, placing a wager on either one requires more insight.

This team had a miserable 2021, but they seem to be faring well in 2022. Their overall performance places them at number 14, boasting 6 points to their name, and two recent draws. Their last 3 games led to one loss, to Shandong. This is a team much higher and with better performance in the league. Also, Dalian boasts a fifty-fifty chance of ending their games with a draw, or loss. Their draw to Henan, while away, and a team sitting at number 2 on the table, proves Dalian might be a force to be reckoned with.

Their most recent performances at home, dismal at that, are not mirrored in their head-to-head games. Statistics show that both teams have a chance of beating each other when the time is right. Their last 4 games have led to two wins for each team. Dalian pro took the win during their last match, which they hosted. The game ended in a 2-0 draw for Dalian. With their next matchup being on Shandong ground, fans are hoping Shandong will bring the heat. 

Going by their most recent performances, at home, chances of a win for Shandong remain bleak. It is very likely Dalian will bring the game to a draw, and score more than one goal even while away. Their total goals for the match might remain below 3. Their only game that ended in a 0-4 total score was after extra time.
