Tianjin Teda vs Changchun Yatai Prediction: Defense Shortcomings In This Fixture To Trigger Goals

With Tianjin Teda standing in their way, it will be a challenging journey for Changchun Yatai as they try to start their 13th matchday with a victory on the road and bounce back in form.

Can Tianjin Teda beat Changchun Yatai at home and continue their winning streak to two games? Or will they forfeit all three points?

Tianjin Teda have done a wonderful job of retaining their calm to place them in the middle of the table in the standings despite the slight setbacks they have had to stumble upon in their recent encounters.

In their most recent game, which they may rank among their best of the season so far, they defeated Hebei CFFC 4-3 to earn three points on the road to climb up the standings.

As a result, they have only won twice in their previous five games and lost three times, giving up a total of eight goals in the process. They are portraying a rather weak defense, something they need to improve if they want to do better.

The visitors will be eager to resume play and exert their influence as soon as their 16th matchday begins when they take on Tianjin Teda on the road.

It couldn't have been more suspenseful as their game against Shanghai Shenhua finished in a scoreless stalemate after numerous attempts to break the tie. Shanghai Shenhua had two of their players sent off, making it nine men on the field, a game they could've easily won.

But it sounds like they had trouble keeping the hosts under control. Prior to their scoreless draw, they were soundly defeated by Henan Jianye, who outscored them 6-2. This was by far their worst loss ever. 

It has been a trying season for them as they try to bounce back in form to get rid of their inconsistent form after just staying afloat in the Super League with three points to account for in three of their past five games while suffering two defeats.

Occupying 13th position with the potential to move up to 12th place if they are to secure a victory against Tianjin Teda, it'll be a worthwhile cause for them to put up a promising performance this time around to be anywhere near achieving that kind of outcome.
