Expert Betting Tips
Shanghai Shenhua are currently the better side on paper and are tipped for another second consecutive win, this time at home, where they have been in consistent form.
The Flower of Shanghai have won seven of their thirteen home matches and should be able to record their eighth win against a side that has put forth a lackluster performance away from home, going winless in thirteen matches.
As such, we anticipate a straightforward win for the home side, who we feel are likely going to be the stronger side, having managed five wins out of six in this fixture.
