Shanghai Shenhua, Recent FormThe Shanghai Shenhua players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Beijing Guoan recently, that ended in a 2-1 defeat. In that game they had 35% possession and managed 12 attempts on goal, with 7 on target, compared to Beijing Guoan who had 8 attempts and 3 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 11 and seen valuable points lost. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games; however, they've scored in 21 of their 23 games this season.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form, having lost 3 of their last 6 games and picking up only 2 wins.
Obafemi Martins will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for Shanghai Shenhua.
Chengdu Rongcheng, Recent FormThe Chengdu Rongcheng squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 home defeat against Wuhan Three Towns, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. In that game they recorded 51 % of the possession, with 9 attempts on goal, 1 on target. Their opponents found the target on 7 of their 19 shots on goal.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 8 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 8 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Losing 4 of their last 6 games will be causing some concern in the Chengdu camp, but their 2 wins salvaged some valuable points.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Shanghai Shenhua, losing 2-1 to Chengdu Rongcheng.
The last 3 matches between Shenhua and Chengdu show that Shenhua have let in at least one goal on each occasion.
Chengdu has won the last 3 games they've played against Shenhua in the league.
