On July 28th at 7:35 PM, Zhejiang Team will host Chengdu Rongcheng in the 20th round of the Chinese Super League. Zhejiang Team has an excellent home record and will be aiming to end their losing streak back at their home stadium; Chengdu Rongcheng, despite some player absences, will still be aiming to grab points and consolidate their ranking in this strong clash.
Zhejiang Team has a record of 9 wins, 1 draw, and 10 losses after 20 games, making them the team with the fewest draws this season, and also the only team among the top 7 in the league with a negative goal difference, scoring 34 goals and conceding 37. In their previous 10 home games, Zhejiang Team has recorded 7 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses, making them a classic home strong, away weak team.
Chengdu Rongcheng, after 20 games, has recorded 13 wins, 3 draws, and 4 losses, placing them 3rd in the league table. They are 10 points behind Shanghai Shenhua in front of them, and 5 points ahead of Beijing Guoan behind them. In their previous 10 away games, Chengdu Rongcheng has achieved 5 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses, with a win rate of 50% on the road.
Zhejiang Team has recently suffered a 2-game losing streak, conceding 7 goals in those 2 games. In their last 7 games, Zhejiang Team has 2 wins and 5 losses, but all the losses have come from away games. In the Chinese Super League at home, Zhejiang Team has won 5 games in a row, scoring 19 goals with an average of nearly 4 goals per game.
Chengdu Rongcheng, in their last away game, drew 1-1 with Wuhan Three Towns, ending their winning streak. Moreover, they have only managed to keep a clean sheet in 1 away game this season, a 1-0 victory against Nantong Zhiyun.
Zhejiang Team’s foreign player Leonardo has scored 4 goals in his last 4 games, while Chengdu Rongcheng’s Felipe has scored 12 goals and provided 5 assists this season. Both teams have strong attackers in their ranks. However, Chengdu Rongcheng’s Wei Shihao will miss this game due to suspension.
The two teams have faced each other 5 times in the Chinese Super League previously, with Zhejiang Team winning 1, drawing 2, and losing 2, putting them at a disadvantage. Zhejiang Team has never defeated Chengdu Rongcheng at home, and in their first encounter this season, they suffered a 0-3 defeat.
Zhejiang Team is a typical home-strong team, and returning to their home stadium, they are looking to avenge their defeat in the first round and end their recent losing streak with a victory. Chengdu Rongcheng, while their 3rd place is relatively secure, also hope to continue grabbing points as the teams behind them slip up, further consolidating their ranking and laying the foundation for their bid for a place in the Champions League Elite group.
