Yanbian take on the visitors Shanghai SIPG at “Yanji Nationwide Fitness Centre Stadium” in the round 17 of the Chinese Super League. The game will be played in Yanji on Saturday, July 15th.
Yanbian have been staying in awful competitive form in recent months: the side won only one out of last 10 encounters of the season. Last matchday “Baekdu Tigers” were broken by Chongqing Lifan with 0:4 scoreline at the home ground. After 16 gameweeks in the Chinese Super League, Yanbian settle on the last position in the standings with 10 points earned and 11-28 goal difference being under the threat of relegation. “Baekdu Tigers” conducted eight clashes in front of their supporters recording only five points taken, five goals for and 14 goals against in them. The team lost three recent games with 1:9 aggregated score.

Last round Shanghai SIPG were beaten by Changchun Yatai with 2:4 scoreline and ended their 10-clash successful streak covering eight victories. That failure didn’t allow Andre Villas-Boas’ team to take the lead in the elite division. As a result, “Red Eagles” sit on the second place in the table with 36 points gained and 40-16 goal difference. Shanghai SIPG picked up 12 points with 12 goals for and 11 goals against in eight matches on the road.
Shanghai SIPG have not been defeated by Yanbian since the 24th of July 2010 across eight head-to-heads resulting in six triumphs in favour of “Red Eagles” and two draws. Unlike to Shanghai SIPG which are battling for the champion’s title, this year the hosts show mediocre results. Thus, I presume that the visiting side will extend its lucky run.
Prediction for the match: Shanghai SIPG to win.
