Shandong Taishan will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 1-0 away win against Chengdu Rongcheng.  During that encounter they had 32% possession and had 4 attempts on goal with 2 on target, while their opponents hit 3 of their 18 shots on goal.  

While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 11 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 10, and leading to valuable points being dropped.   They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at Jinan Olympic Sports Center Stadium.  

They have shown a solid run of form lately at Jinan Olympic Sports Center Stadium, which has seen them go unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 home matches while registering 3 victories from the same run.

Having taken all 3 points, with a crucial 2-0 away win over Qingdao West Coast in their last league game, Nantong Zhiyun will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work.  They came away from that fixture with a 43% share of the possession and clocked up 12 attempts on goal with 4 on target, in comparison to Qingdao West Coast, who managed 3 attempts on goal, 2 of which were on target.  

They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 4 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 7 and seen valuable points lost.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games.  

Their current form can't be viewed positively, having clocked up 3 losses from their last 6 games and only 2 wins to speak of.  

On an individual basis, Jesús Godínez will be looking to cause Shandong Taishan some problems having scored 3 goals in Nantong Zhiyun's last 6 away games in the league.
