Zhejiang Professional vs Qingdao Hainiu: Team News and Expert Analysis
The Hangzhou club finished seventh with 42 points, narrowly ahead of Yunnan on tiebreakers. They had to deal with a five-point penalty this season. Despite that, their performance has been decent, especially recently, with very few losses. However, in the summer, they suffered consecutive defeats to West Coast and Shenhua.
The team from Shandong province managed only 25 points in 2025, but that was enough to secure a "safe" fourteenth place. After a seven-point deduction, it seemed the project was doomed for the new season. However, they started well and only faltered at the end of spring, losing four games in a row. After the break, things changed: they beat Yunnan and drew with Chengdu.
The hosts average 1.35 goals scored per game, but concede significantly more—1.71 per match. El Messaoudi and company play slightly more spectacular football: 1.59 goals scored and 1.65 conceded on average.
Previous matches:
In their last four matches, Zhejiang has won three times and drawn once.
The hosts are expected to win, but given the recent summer rounds, a neutral option like "total over 3.0 goals" (odds – 1.70) might be the safest bet.
