Meizhou Hakka FC

Form: WLWLL

Meizhou Hakka knew that they had to make an immediate statement after their catastrophic 6:1 defeat at the hands of Shandong Taishan on the road. And they did just about that, as their next target on the list was none other than floundering side Changchun Yatai, whose home advantage had an impact on them, claiming a convincing 4:2 victory.

However, their impressive showing over Changchun Yatai is clouded by an inconsistent form, which has seen them pick up just two wins from their last six matches in all competitions, and it's worth mentioning that those wins all came on home soil, where they've justified their role as a consistent side to the fullest.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 4-2-3-1

C. Yuelei; T. Yue, L. Junjian, R. Dugalic, Y. Chugui; N. Kosovic, J. Chen; C. Zhechao, Rodrigo Henrique, Y. Chaosheng; T. Conraad

Qingdao Hainiu FC

Form: LWLLW

The Sea Bulls had already come to terms with their unfortunate fate with news that they were going to be pitted against table-toppers Shanghai Port in the 21st round as they bowed down to a disappointing and their biggest loss to date, 5:0. This comes after their 3:2 win over Chengdu Rongcheng at home.

That defeat thwarted their chances of recording a second consecutive victory, but that will be the least of their worries as they try to avoid a sudden downturn in performance. They have won four of their last nine matches in all competitions while losing three and drawing two.

Probable Starting XI

Formation: 5-4-1

P. Mou; Z. Wei, D. Xu, A. Andrejevic, L. Junshuai, G. Wang; E. Saric, P. Xinli, Z. Jinbao, E. Kangwa; F. Brown Forbes

Qingdao Hainiu FC were undeniably not at their best performance in their match against Shanghai Port FC, where home advantage didn't do them any good to avoid defeat, and they'll be hoping to rectify their mistakes by claiming a positive result against a side that has found form when playing at home.

While Meizhou Hakka FC can't be considered a strong opposition to Qingdao Hainiu FC's eyes, they are currently the better side, mainly due to their laudable run at home that sees them on a four-match winning streak, which makes their victory in this case not one to be doubted.
