Let's have a look at the latest Chinese Super League predictions between Changchun Yatai FC vs Meizhou Hakka FC, probable lineups, match facts, and up-to-date betting odds for you to consider!

Changchun Yatai FC

Form: WDLWW

Changchun Yatai FC can be more than happy with their recent performance on the road against Nantong Zhiyun FC, as they claimed a 1:0 victory thanks to Léo Souzal's goal in the opening 23 minutes that they held onto despite their opponents threatening offense, which they managed to thwart.

Prior to that, they played host to Tianjin Teda at the Changchun Stadium, where they found themselves trailing behind by a goal in the opening 10 minutes. However, they managed to restore parity in the 54th minute courtesy of Léo Souza's goal, and this saw them rescue a point as the match ended in a 1:1 draw.

A 1:0 loss against Shanghai Shenhua on the road has been the only result that has tainted their impressive form in the last five matches, where three wins and a draw have been recorded, and given that they are currently on a two-match unbeaten run, they'll be eager to extend that run to three games by claiming a convincing win in this encounter.

They presently occupy 4th place with 10 points and are three points behind 1st place, while they have maintained a 1 point lead over Tianjin Teda in 5th place.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-4-2

Meizhou Hakka FC

Form: WDLLD

Meizhou Hakka FC managed to come back from a goal down in the first half to turn the game on its head and score two unanswered goals in the second half that saw them claim a shock 2:1 victory against Shandong Taishan at home, a result they'll undoubtedly add to their portfolio this season.

Prior to that, their match against Dalian Pro saw them being competitive at a modest level, but their lack of efficiency in front of goal was the only issue that held them back from bagging all three points, as they only managed to salvage a point in a 1:1 draw courtesy of Shi Liang's late goal in the 88th minute.

In their last five matches, they have lost two matches while recording two draws and a win, but that doesn't necessarily reflect a consistent form, making for an improved showing with their performance imperative as they seek to extend their two-match unbeaten run to three matches.

They presently occupy 9th place with 5 points and are three points behind the 6th place currently occupied by Wuhan Three Towns, while they have maintained a 1 point lead over Shenzhen FC (13th) and Qingdao Hainiu FC (14th).
