Our Prediction for Meizhou Hakka vs Shanghai Shenhua
The club from Guangdong province was supposed to be playing in the country's second division by now. They only picked up 27 points—a next-to-last result in the league. However, issues for Mighty Lions allowed them to retain their "registration" in the top flight instead of the bankrupt project. The visitors, led by Slutsky, fiercely contested the title race with neighbors SIPG. Ultimately, they lost out by just a single point.
This result earned them a spot in the elite division of the AFC Champions League. However, already in the Round of 16, after barely beating Kawasaki Frontale at home, the Chinese side suffered a crushing 0-4 defeat in the return leg in Japan. By focusing on the domestic stage, though, they managed to become sole leaders, only failing to win since April in the derby. However, their winning streak was snapped with a 0-1 loss away to Chengdu. At the same time, their opponent is proving that their place in the Super League is well-founded. Their statistics are quite similar to a mid-table side, with almost equal numbers of wins, draws, and losses. They lost 1-3 to Qingdao West Coast.
Ngom-Mbekeli and company deliver entertaining football. They manage to score but also concede an average of 1.9 goals per match. The league leaders, meanwhile, score around two goals per match and concede half as many—1.11.
