With six points accumulated from seven matches, Meizhou Hakka FC occupies the 15th spot within the relegation zone in the Chinese Super League standings and is one point adrift of safety.

Qingdao West Coast, on the other hand, suffered a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Nantong Zhiyun FC in front of their fans, which marked their fifth defeat in the last eight league matches.

Having been on a two-match winning streak, Qingdao West Coast have seen their performance take a nose dive in the past few weeks as they come into this match after a four-match losing run, conceding 12 goals in the process, which is no surprise given they boast the worst defensive record in the league with 16 goals conceded thus far.

With seven points accumulated from eight matches, Qindao West Coast occupies the 14th spot in the Chinese Super League standings, one point ahead of their opponents in this impending encouner in the relegation zone and three points behind eighth-placed Henan FC.

• Meizhou Hakka FC have seen the total go under 2.5 in five of their last seven matches in the Super League.
• Qingdao West Coast are currently on a two-match losing streak when playing away in the Super League.
• Meizhou Hakka FC averages 0.33 goals per game when playing at home, and Qingdao West Coast averages 1.25 goals per game when playing away.

This will be the first meeting between these two sides in the Chinese Super League.

Meizhou Hakka FC has recently struggled in the league, but their recent victory over Changchun Yatai FC may have instilled confidence in them for upcoming matches. On the other hand, Qingdao West Coast faces the risk of slipping into the relegation zone if they don't secure a positive result in this game. They too aim to deliver a convincing performance away from home, where they have fallen short of expectations this season, losing three of their last four matches.

With both teams eager to improve their league standings, this match promises to be highly competitive. Instead of expecting a high-scoring affair, it's more likely to be a low-scoring encounter, making predicting a winner in the full-time market challenging. Therefore, it's prudent to anticipate the total number of corners to exceed 9, which seems like a solid bet in what could be an unpredictable match.
