Shanghai Shenhua take on the visitors Jiangsu Suning in the round 1 match of Chinese Super League. The game will be played on Sunday, March 5th at Hongkou Stadium (Shanghai).
Shanghai ended previous season on fourth place in the standings. The team have played on official match this season in qualification of Asian Champions league. The team lost that match 0-2 to Brisbane Roar and got eliminated from the competition. Clearly, it wasn’t what investors expected when they appointed experienced Gustavo Poyet and signed to the first such players and Freddy Guarin, Obafemi Martins and Carlos Tevez, who’s been given the highest salary in the world.

Jiangsu Suning are the runners-up of previous season in China. The team has played three matches in 2017 already. Two of them were in Asian Champions League and both clashes ended with wins of today’s visitors. These six points allow the team to lead solely in their group after two matchdays. However, the match of Chinese Supercup against the champions Evergrand ended with 0-1 defeat of the team that’s led by Brazilian duo Ramirez and Alex Teixeira.
It’s only start of the season and it’s hard to pick a favorite after all changes in teams this mid-season. However, there is a big chance both team will stick to defensive tactics and focus on denying chances of the opponent.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 goals.
