Shenhua will be looking for three points to continue their pursuit of Shanghai SIPG. Yatai, with their relegation pressure eased, will also be looking to secure a victory.
Shanghai Shenhua has recorded 14 wins and 4 draws in their first 18 rounds, placing them second in the league table. Their defensive record is the best in the league, conceding only 6 goals. In their previous 9 home games, Shanghai Shenhua has remained undefeated with 7 wins and 2 draws, conceding only 3 goals at home.

They have scored 26 goals and conceded 31 goals. Yatai has played 9 away games, recording 2 wins, 3 draws, and 4 losses, ranking 11th in away game performance.
Shenhua’s Luis and Marlele have combined for 21 goals, demonstrating their high efficiency. Yatai’s Beric has scored 7 goals, ranking 14th in the goalscoring chart. However, Beric has scored 3 goals in the last 3 games. Shenhua has signed Fernando, Chen Jinyi, and Wang Yifan during the summer transfer window, and the head coach has hinted that Fernando may make his debut.

Shanghai Shenhua has won all three of their recent matches, keeping clean sheets against Meizhou Hakka, Qingdao West Coast, and Shandong Taishan. Their 6-0 victory over Taishan last round shocked the outside world. Playing at home, Shenhua has a record of 5 wins and 1 draw in their last 6 home games, winning all matches with clean sheets.
Yatai has gone unbeaten in the last 3 rounds, recording 1 win and 2 draws. Their victory was a 5-0 win, and the two draws were both 2-2. However, including the FA Cup, Yatai has gone 5 games without a win in regulation time away from home. They conceded 12 goals in 4 of those Chinese Super League games, averaging 3 goals per game.
The two teams have met 35 times since the 2006 season, with Shenhua holding a slight disadvantage with 10 wins, 13 draws, and 12 losses. However, starting with the 2021 FA Cup, Shenhua has remained unbeaten in 6 consecutive matches against Yatai, recording 3 wins and 3 draws. In the first leg of the season, Shenhua won 2-1 away from home.
With Shanghai SIPG winning their match first, Shenhua must win against Yatai to keep pace. Yatai has eased their relegation pressure with recent good performances, allowing them to play with a lighter heart in this match. Xie Hui leads his team against his former club once again.
