From failing to win their opening two matches in the league to securing two wins in the first ten matches, it became abundantly clear that Qingdao West Coast wouldn't have it easy in the top flight. They are currently languishing in the relegation zone, and a trip to the second tier is most likely if they don't pull up their socks.
Given the current state of affairs, every point counts from now on, and Jiayi Shao's team displayed that in their most recent match against Cangzhou Mighty Lions FC. Despite trailing by a goal in the 52nd minute courtesy of Oscar Maritu's goal, that didn't stop Xiuwei Zhang from finding an equalizer three minutes after the ordeal to force a 1-1 draw at home. However, such a result only extended their winless run in the league to three matches (D2, L1).
With 18 points accumulated from 22 matches, Qingdao West Coast occupies 15th place in the Chinese Super League standings within the relegation zone. They are deadlocked on points with 14th-placed Cangzhou Mighty Lions FC, who hold the key to their salvation.

A 1-0 away defeat to Shenzhen Peng City FC before their match against Shanghai Shenhua on Monday was supposed to see Beijing Guoan FC bereft of confidence and lacking the will to fight. However, they came up with a surprise to hand Shanghai Shenhua's first defeat of the season by recording a hard-fought 2-1 victory in front of their fans.
Given the outcome, the Imperial Guards have now recorded four wins in their last seven matches in the league (L3) and will be aiming to make it five wins. This season, they've not lost to Qingdao West Coast, picking up successive 4-1 victories in their past two encounters, and a repeat outcome is undeniably on the cards.
With 40 points accumulated from 22 matches, Beijing Guoan FC occupies 4th place in the Chinese Super League standings. They have maintained a six-point cushion over fifth-placed Shandong Taishan and are eight points adrift of third-placed Chengdu Rongcheng FC.

Expert Betting Tips
Qingdao West Coast is mired in a relegation scrap and needs only two points to escape the red zone. They are winless in their last three matches in the league and could be in for another unfavorable outcome in front of their fans, where they've performed below expectations.
Also falling below expectations is a Beijing Guoan FC side that finds itself in a similar situation on the road. The Imperial Guards are currently on a three-match losing streak and have gone five matches without a win (L4, D1).
Despite their poor showing on the road, Beijing Guoan FC have been the better side on paper this season, and we anticipate supporting them in the full-time market to secure a comfortable win and halt their winless run on the road.
