Form: WLWLW
At the Wuyuan River Stadium, the Blue Hawks defeated Shenzhen FC 0-2 to earn three points. Though they didn't win on possession they were clearly the superior team throughout the game and on paper as well, and they displayed grit to rebound from their 2-1 loss to Shanghai SIPG on the road.
Their attempts to keep up a steady form despite having a difficult season and trying to make ends meet have gone unnoticed, as they have already won thrice in their last five games while losing twice to Shanghai SIPG and Wuhan Three Towns, earning a total of 9 points.
Occupying 12th place with 28 points and looking over their shoulders will be their ideal norm from now on, as they are one point ahead of 13th-placed Shenzhen FC and two points clear of 14th-placed Cangzhou Mighty Lions, with a goal differential preventing them from moving up to 11th place.
Probable Starting XI
Formation: 4-3-3
W. Yan (30); G. Sun (11), L. Longchang (2), Y. He (18), J. Huang (14); L. Peng (31), B. Tsonev (10), Y. Fei (28); X. Yan (39), L. Lin (7), Y. Shang (23).
Guangzhou Evergrande
Form: LDLLL
After deciding to take a more defensive stance in their most recent game against Hangzhou Greentown, they were unable to stop the inevitable and were defeated 1-5 at home. This defeat comes after an exciting 3-3 home tie with Cangzhou Mighty Lions.
Zheng Zhi's side has gone 11 games without a win, with their last victory coming at home against Shenzhen FC (4-1) back in August. Since then, it has been nothing but a run of 4 draws and 7 losses, totalling 4 points, making for an erratic run of results from their side, to be precise.
While they have been in poor form, their position is much worse than that; they are on the verge of being relegated as they are still in that dreadful 17th place with only 13 points after 24 games.
Probable Starting XI
Formation: 5-4-1
J. Zhang (19); H. Fan (18), Z. Chenglin (43), S. Wu (5), W. Zhao (3), R. Hao (44); Y. Liyu (17), Y. Hou (34), M. Cai (33), W. Shihao (7); D. Yan (15).

Expert Betting Tips
Without a doubt, Dalian Pro are ranked among the top offensive teams because they have consistently looked dangerous in the last third of their games. Their only real weakness—a lack of success—comes from a defense that has allowed 39 goals in the previous 24 games, which is a major source of concern.
While they aren't in the running for first place or third place because it is already clear that they are far behind, their desire to avoid relegation might be what gives them the adrenaline rush right now. They have scored 21 goals in their last 14 home games, showing that playing at home has proven to be their strong suit, and they could turn this game into a goal-fest.
Guangzhou Evergrande might not be in the best of moods after their disappointing loss to Hangzhou Greentown, but considering the potential prize they could gain if they were to focus on this match, which is an improvement in the rankings, it'll be the perfect opportunity to encourage them to return to winning ways.
We anticipate both teams scoring, which shouldn't be too difficult given that this will be an open game with defense being the least of their concerns. While neither team has the best defense in the Super League, they do know their stuff when it comes to finding the back of the net.
