Zhejiang Professional

Form: WWWWD

The Green Giants picked up a critical three points to consolidate their place after defeating Shanghai Shenhua 2-0 on the road at the Jinjiang Football Training Center Stadium, and this came before their 2-0 home success over Beijing Guoan.

Jordi Vinyals is undeniably pleased with his team's performance thus far. The Green Giants are currently on a four-match winning streak and are poised to extend their unbeaten streak to seven games, during which they have amassed 16 points, creating an undeniably harmonious atmosphere in their camp.

They have proven to be a garrison stationed to defend their fortress at home, as they have only lost twice in their last thirteen home games while racking up 27 points. They are currently on a three-match unbeaten streak when playing at home and would likely want to extend that run to four matches.

Deja vu has struck twice, but this time in a different setting as they find themselves in third place with 55 points, a familiar position they once held in the second-tier league to qualify for the top tier. It is imperative that they maintain that position, as they are only a point ahead of Chengdu Rongcheng placed in fourth place.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-1-4-1

G. Chao (1); Y. Xin (28), Lucas (36), L. Nok Hang (2), D. Yu (19); L. Wei (17); A. Abdusalam (18), C. Jin (22), F. Andrijasevic (11), D. Ewolo (7); N. Mushekwi (30).

Meizhou Hakka

Form: WLLLW

There's no denying the fact that they were under pressure to get back to winning ways, and they succeeded in doing so against Hebei FC on the road, winning 4:0. The 30-year-old forward Chisom Egbuchulam scored his first hat-trick of the season to give his team an important three points.

Even though they used their victory over Hebei FC as a springboard to return to winning ways, there was and still is a shadow of doubt hanging over them because they had lost their previous three games in a row and had picked up just six points in their previous five games. Judging by their current form, they are still staring inconsistency in the face.

With 43 points, they are currently placed in ninth place and have maintained a comfortable lead over teams like Shanghai Shenhua in 10th place and Dalian Pro in 11th place by being 4 points ahead of them.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Y. Hou (22); C. Wei (23), L. Junjian (6), R. Dugalic (20), W. Wei (21); L. Shi (13), Y. Yang (17); Y. Hongbo (10), G. Chen (37), C. Egbuchulam (11); Y. Chaosheng (16).

Expert Betting Tips

Zhejiang Professional are undoubtedly the talk of the town because of their complete dominance in the top-tier league this season. Their polished performance is consistent with their third-place standing for a team that has only suffered 4 defeats in their last 29 games and is well on its way to extending its unbeaten streak to seven games. Talk about an impressive performance from a newly promoted team.

Even though Meizhou Hakka may not be fully confident, they have the momentum to extend their winning streak to two games. However, they will need to be more innovative in their strategy because they are facing an unstoppable force that is not the same team that they were able to hold to a 0:0 draw at home despite being the superior team in that game.

Zhejiang Professional appear to be the most likely joy-breaker to snuff out Meizhou Hakka's joy by handing them their fourth defeat and might as well trample their way to solidifying their position at their expense. As a result, we do anticipate that their on-point performance will come into play and lead to an early victory in the first half.
