Cangzhou Mighty Lions FC

Form: WWLWD

Cangzhou Mighty Lions couldn't have asked for a better result as they beat Shenzhen FC 1:0 at home courtesy of a 75th-minute Peng Wang goal that witnessed them bag all three points.

Prior to that, they made the trip to Rugao Olympic Sports Center Stadium to lock horns with Nantong Zhiyun and had one objective in mind, which was to bounce back to winning ways after their 3:0 sound defeat to Shanghai Port on the road, and they eventually did that by claiming a 2:1 victory thanks to goals from in-form duo Deabeas Owusu-Sekyere and Jürgen Locadia.

Having suffered two consecutive losses against Shanghai Shenhua and Henan, losing both matches by a 1:0 scoreline, they have since gone on to avoid defeat in their last four matches, picking up three wins and a 1:1 draw against Tianjin Teda, which has seen them brimming with confidence, making it fair to say they'll turn out to be a competitive side in this encounter.

They presently occupy 10th place with 27 points in the standings, where they have maintained an eight-point cushion over Qingdao Hainiu FC in 11th place and are three points behind 7th place, which is currently occupied by Wuhan Three Towns.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 3-4-2-1

P. Shao; X. Yang, K. Zheng, Y. Liu; S. Piao, P. Wang, G. Zhukov, H. Zhao; O. Maritu, D. Owusu-Sekyere; J. Locadia

Dalian Pro

Form: WLLDD

Dalian Pro put forth a convincing performance in front of their supporters as they eked out a 2:1 triumph over Shanghai Shenhua courtesy of first-half goals from Lobi Manzoki and Liangming Lin.

Prior to that, they suffered a 2:1 defeat at the hands of Meizhou Hakka on the road, which extended their losing run in the league to two matches, and this comes after their success in the fourth round of the CFA Cup against Henan FC, as they booked their place in the quarter-finals after winning 5:3 on penalties.

The Blue Hawks have the worst away record this season of any other team in the league, which comes as no surprise for a side that lost the first five matches. They are winless in their last ten matches, picking up seven losses and three draws, which has seen them run low on confidence, making their likelihood of causing an upset in this clash nonexistent.

They presently occupy 14th place with 15 points, level on points with Nantong Zhiyun in 15th place thanks to a goal differential, and are four points behind 11th place, which is currently occupied by Qingdao Hainiu FC.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Expert Betting Tips

Cangzhou Mighty Lions have no relegation tussle to be worried about other than achieving their goal for a mid-table finish this season, which seems certain, and a win is what they'll be searching for here.

Dalian Pro know that they can't afford to rest on their laurels as of yet despite making it out of the relegation zone, as one misstep could see them back on the drawing board, and it's without a shadow of doubt that every game from now on will turn out to be a final in their bid for survival, as such an upturn in performance will surely be noticed in the coming weeks.

Meetings between these two sides have turned out to be cagey affairs most of the time, where picking a winner in the full-time market has not been advisable. However, prospects of witnessing goals at both ends of the pitch seem likely, as this has been the case in six of their last nine matches in this fixture, which makes us inclined to think that the same trend will continue here.
