Chongqing Tonglianglong vs Dalian YingboPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Chongqing Tonglianglong sit seventh with 30 points from 23 games, a 7-9-7 record and 25 goals scored against 27 conceded; at home they have won 4 of their 11 matches, netting 16 goals. Recent form has been modest, just one point from the last two games after three straight defeats (N P P P N, oldest to newest). Dalian Zhixing are sixth on 33 points, but their away form is the opposite of their home form: on the road they have won only 2 of 12 matches and conceded 26 goals, while at home the record is 8 wins from 11. Over the last five games Dalian have managed just one win (N P V N P). The Super League is averaging 3.07 goals per match, and the contrast between Chongqing's home attack and Dalian's leaky away defence is what stands out most in this fixture. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
