Henan Jianye take on the visitors Guangzhou R&F at “Zhengzhou Hanghai Stadium” in the round 12 of the Chinese Super League. The match will be played in Zhengzhou on Friday, June 2nd.
Henan Jianye have been failing to stable their results for 11 months already since their collapse in June 2016. After 11 matchdays “The Red Devils” share the 15th-16th positions in the standings with Yanbian having got seven points with 9-15 goal difference. There are no football stars famous all over the world in the squad distinguishing Henan Jianye among the most teams of the Super League. The weak spot of Jia Xiuquan’s side is its performance at the home field: it recorded only two points gained, four goals for and seven goals against in six clashes. Last time Henan Jianye won in front of their fans was on the 18th of September 2016 and afterwards they conducted eight games at the home ground resulting in four draws and four defeats.

Guangzhou R&F have not won in the Super League since the 21st of April across five matches in a row, whereby, three recent encounters ended with draws. However, the successful start of the season allow the team to stay in the upper part of the table with 19 points taken and 16-13 goal difference sitting on the fifth place. Dragan Stojkovic’s side participated in six clashes on the road recording 11 points earned, 11 goals for and nine goals against. The team’s leader is the midfielder Eran Zahavi who has scored nine goals already in the Super League.
At the moment both opponents are far away from their best competitive form, thus the spectacular battle shouldn’t be expected in their head-to-head. And under scored goals are quite possible in the clash, taking into consideration the hosts’ difficulties in offense and the fact that only Eran Zahavi is able to score in the visiting team.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
