Meizhou Hakka vs Hebei CFFC Prediction: Counting On Meizhou Hakka To Deliver Early On Goals In The First-Half

On their 17th matchday of the Super League, Meizhou Hakka and Hebei CFFC will square off at Wuhua Olympic Sports Center Huitang Stadium. Will Hebei CFFC be able to rebound from their recent poor performance and prevail? Or will they suffer yet another loss?

Form: WLWWW

An honorable mention should go to the hosts, who made their presence known when they hosted Dalian Pro in their most recent match on the 16th Super League matchday and triumphed with a convincing victory.

They won 4-2 to totally keep all three points after Yin Hongbo's final goal for their team effectively sealed Dalian Pro's fate and ended any chance for Dalian Pro to score an equalizer.

With just a small step in the right direction, they were able to secure their fourth victory in the previous five games—four wins and one loss—which they had previously endured.

Due to terrific form while vying for the sixth place spot, they are positioned in a more reasonable eighth place spot in the super league standings.

Form: LLLLL

Like Guangzhou City, they too entered most of their games with little to no confidence, and as a result, their form declined appallingly and irreparably.

They failed to build on their bad performance in their most recent game against Hangzhou Greentown, and as a result, they suffered another disappointing result: a 3-0 away loss in which they forfeited all three points.

At the moment, they are less worried about winning than they are about escaping the relegation zone, which has left them bottom last in the standings in 18th position with only three points to show for their performance.

They currently have a losing streak of eight games and have not picked up any points in their last five games. It will be harder for them to get back on track and escape the relegation zone than it would be for them to win this game.
