In the previous round, they played host to Meizhou Hakka FC at the Yellow Dragon Sports Center. Goals from Leonardo, Jean Kouassi, and Jin Cheng were more than sufficient to see them secure a decisive 4-0 victory.

Expert Betting Tips
Qingdao West Coast are mired in a slump, and their current form spells trouble this season as they are on the brink of being relegated to the second tier. Their home form does not instill much confidence either, having gone seven matches without a win, recording five losses and two draws.
Zhejiang Professional FC, on the other hand, has also had unpleasant results on the road, as they are currently on a three-match losing streak. However, on paper, they have been the better side and are likely to get the better of their opponents in this impending encounter.
Therefore, support the away side in the full-time market combined with the total of over 2.5 goals, which should suffice.
- Zhejiang Professional FC & Over 2.5 for 1.91
- Corners - Under 10 for 2.20
- Total - Over 3.5 for 2.06
