Henan Jianye

LWLWLL

Henan Jianye will be hoping for a better result following the 1-2 Super League loss in their previous game against Wuhan Three Towns.

In that match, Henan Jianye had 61% possession and 13 attempts on goal with 5 on target. The scorer for Henan Jianye was Iago Maidana (54'). On the other side, Wuhan Three Towns got 7 shots on goal with 4 of them on target. Gustavo Sauer (64') and Alexandru Tudorie (89') scored for Wuhan Three Towns.

It’s been a rare occasion in recent times where Henan Jianye have kept a clean sheet. In fact, Henan Jianye have seen their defence breached in 6 of their previous 6 matches, giving up 9 goals in the process. Despite that, we will just have to wait and see whether that pattern shall continue on in this next game or not.

Since a losing effort in their last game against Sichuan Jiuniu in Super League action, Tianjin Jinmen Tiger and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.

Looking at their form, and Tianjin Jinmen Tiger have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, conceding 10 goals overall. Defensively, Tianjin Jinmen Tiger certainly have room for improvement.

🧠 Prediction

Our thinking is that Tianjin Jinmen Tiger will need things to go their way to breach the defence of this Henan Jianye side who we reckon will do enough to score at the other end and edge ahead.

We’re therefore seeing a very even contest with a 1-0 victory for Henan Jianye at the end of this game.

Should be a close one.
