In our opinion, Shanghai Port are likely to have the majority of the possession and should be able to turn a few of their chances into goals.
However, Shandong Luneng will be up against it to get a goal of their own although we do think that they will probably end up managing to get on the scoresheet.
Therefore, we are anticipating a controlled 3-1 winning score for Shanghai Port at the end of the match.
