Wuhan Zall have seen their form deteriorate and are now under pressure to record a positive result as they play hosts to Chengdu Rongcheng at the Dongxihu Sports Centre, and with their home form not convincing as they have had struggles, another defeat is definitely on the cards if nothing is implemented to address their performance.

As they are currently experiencing a dismal form, they saw their previous encounter against Cangzhou Mighty Lions result in a 4-1 defeat at home, and pressure is now starting to mount for them as they are now on a four-match losing streak in the Super League.
Prior to that, they were defeated 2-0 by Changchun Yatai on the road and have had their defense breached in all their last five matches, with 13 goals conceded while accounting for only 4 goals.
The inconsistent nature of their play is evident by the fact that they have only earned one point in their previous five games, which has put them on a three-match home losing streak in the super league.
Despite having paid a hefty price for their poor performance, they now find themselves in 15th place with 17 points in the Super League standings, having previously held the position of 11th. They are currently 6 points above the relegation zone.
Chengdu Rongcheng
Form: LDWWL
Their latest two Super League matchups have been quite difficult for them as they have not recorded a win in each of them, with their most recent match being a dismal conclusion as they suffered a 3-0 thumping on the road against Shanghai SIPG before being held to a 0-0 stalemate against Henan Jianye.
They have made a very convincing impression on their performance for a side that has just recently achieved promotion to the top tier league and has been competitive throughout all their matches.
With only two losses in their previous five matches, to Shandong Taishan (2-1) and Shanghai SIPG (3-0), they have gathered 7 points and are only three points away from securing sixth place, as they currently sit in eighth position on 28 points.
If anyone's fate appears dismal in this match, it should be that of their opponent, since they still have plenty of time to recover and change their trajectory for the better, and they appear to be favorites to edge a victory against Wuhan Zall, who have been unreliable in their recent matches.

Expert Betting Tips
Overall, things are not looking well for Wuhan Zall at the moment, as their fate is already bleak due to their quandary of a position in the super league standings.
Not to mention their patchy record in which they've lost four consecutive matches, which has the bookmakers predicting another disappointing defeat at home.
With the sixth slot up for grabs, there's no disputing Chengdu Rongcheng's viewpoint in this circumstance as their goal is to retain all points, and while they didn't show much creativity with the ball in their recent encounter against Shanghai SIPG, we hope that this time around it'll be the contrary.
Wuhan Zall have struggled at home this season, as evidenced by a four-game home losing streak, not to mention their poor defense, which has seen them concede 24 goals at home alone, a large quantity of goals conceded.
While they have not been competitive in their previous encounters, we expect the visitors' offensive style of play to come into play this time and reach the back of the net multiple times against a team that has struggled both offensively and defensively.
