Meizhou Hakka vs Shijiazhuang Ever Bright Prediction: Bet on a double chance for Meizhou

Both teams sit in the middle of the China Super League table; with Meizhou at number 12, and their counterpart at number 13. Their next match is scheduled for Wednesday the 29th of this month. The current form speaks a lot for any team, and these teams have some interesting games behind them. Meizhou has not had the best beginning to this season, but neither have the mighty lions. 

This team has only had 1 in their last 6 games, with 4 games ending in a draw. Their form at home shows 2 games drawn, and away, they have 2 draws, 1 win, and a loss. These statistics are not bad considering they have more draws than losses. Their ranking places them at number 12 out of 18 possible positions. This is past halfway through the table, meaning they need to pull up their socks. With forwards like Chisom Egbuchulam, Aleksa Vukanovic, and Liang, Meizhou should be scoring more goals. This team ends their games with less than 2.5 goals 6/8 times. 

Ever bright boasts 5/5 games ending in less than 2.5 goals. This might be due to better goalkeeping skills, or less-than-adequately equipped forwards. However, the mighty lions boast adequate skills with forwards like Yang Yiming and Oscar Taty, Stefan, and Xinyu. Out of 5 previously played games, they have lost two matches. One of these losses was a home match. They have only won 1 game recently out of the 5 played. These statistics are not any better than their hosts this Wednesday. Averaging 1.6 points per game, predictions for an ever-bright win are low. The chances of both teams scoring in a Shijiazhuang are 50% and 67% in a Meizhou match. 

Out of 6 games played in the CFA league, the mighty lions won 4. Entering the Super League, their last game, on the 9th of June, ended in a draw. Meizhou was playing away and they will have a chance to host their opponents on Wednesday. There is no superior team when these two face-off, thus, their current form is what counts. 

Meizhou, whether home or away, tend to draw in many games, and came out drawing in their last head-to-head with ever bright. It might be a good idea to place a win or draw for Meizhou and less than 2.5 goals for the upcoming game. This is because out of 5 head-to-head games, they have had only 1 match ended with an over 2.5.
