The Green Giants managed to bounce back with a 2:1 win over Chengdu Rongcheng FC away from home following their 5:1 morale-crushing defeat to Shanghai Shenhua in the fourth round of the CFA Cup.

Jordi Vinyals' men were trailing behind by a Kim Min-woo goal in the opening seventeen matches, but Leonardo leveled matters for his side in the 31st minute, and Junsheng Yao made certain to give his side a one-goal lead with a strike of his own one minute into the second half, which turned out to be the game-winning goal at the end.

The Green Giants have won three consecutive matches, all ending with a 2:1 scoreline, against sides Tianjin Teda and Shandong Taishan, with their most recent being against Chengdu Rongcheng FC, while they have avoided defeat in four matches when their 2:2 draw against Changchun Yatai FC is added to the equation, depicting a side that has been in consistent form.

They presently occupy seventh place with 28 points, level on points with Beijing Guoan FC in eighth place and three points adrift of a fifth-place finish, while they are one point ahead of Changchun Yatai FC in ninth place.

Formation: 4-4-2

Wuhan Three Towns, like their opponents in this encounter, also managed to bounce back with a not-so-convincing 1:0 win over Qingdao Hainiu FC in front of their supporters to claim all three points after their disappointing 2:0 loss to Nantong Zhiyun FC in the fourth round of the CFA Cup.

With the first half turning out to be an all-out battle between the two sides showboating their threats in the final third, neither side could find the breakthrough, thus opting for a goalless draw in the first half. However, things would take a turn for the better for Tsutomu Takahata's side in the second half as Liuyu Duan broke the impasse to gift his side a one-goal lead in the 63rd minute, which they held onto until the end, though it wasn't cause for excitement in terms of how they performed.

Tsutomu Takahata's side have extended their winning streak in the league to two matches, with their prior match against Meizhou Hakka FC in the league witnessing them eke out a 2:1 victory at home, and are unbeaten in three matches when a 1:1 draw against Beijing Guoan FC is put into the equation. A third consecutive win is what they'll be gunning for in this clash as they polish their consistent form.

They presently occupy fifth place with 30 points, level on points with Tianjin Teda in sixth place and three points adrift of third place, which is currently occupied by Chengdu Rongcheng FC.

Formation: 4-2-3-1

• Zhejiang Professional FC has scored a goal in six of their nine home matches in the Super League.
• Wuhan Three Towns have lost two of their ten away matches in the Super League.
• Zhejiang Professional FC averages 1.56 goals per game when playing at home, and Wuhan Three Towns averages 1.9 goals per game when playing away.

The last meeting between these two sides was in the fifth round of the current CSL season, where both sides were content with a point after playing out a goalless draw at the Wuhan Sports Center Stadium.

In the last 5 meetings, Zhejiang Professional FC have won 2 times, Wuhan Three Towns have won 2 times, and there have been 1 draw, with the goal difference being 6-5 in favor of Wuhan Three Towns.

Zhejiang Professional has not struggled for consistency, and despite being underdogs in this encounter, there's no doubting that they can cause an upset here as they have the backing of home advantage, and writing them off here could be a costly mistake.

Wuhan Three Town's exit from the CFA Cup has only meant that they will be without a trophy to add to their cabinet this season, and all that's left is to contend for an AFC Champions League qualifier spot, which seems like an achievable feat at the moment given that they are far behind first place.

In ten of their last nineteen matches this season, Zhejiang Professional have conceded two or more goals, and with Wuhan Three Towns not one to be trusted to back up when it comes to such competitive matches, we anticipate both sides to get on the scoreboard with the total going over 2.5 goals.

• Both Teams To Score + Goals - Over 2.5 for 1.90
• 1st Goal - Zhejiang Professional for 2.25
• Total - Over 2.5 for 1.61
