Henan Songshan Longmen vs Guangzhou City Prediction & Tips

In the last head-to-head for this edition of the league on 15-06-2022, Henan Jianye won away by (0-3). The history of head-to-heads played at this stadium favours the home team, who in the last 3 matches won 2 and drew 1. However, in the last meeting at this stadium for the CSL on 11-08-2021, the match ended in a draw (1-1). The goals in the match were scored by P. Kyum (49′ ) for Henan Jianye and by T. Leonco (67′ ) for Guangzhou R&F. Special attention is needed for the home/away condition as both teams show significantly different results in their home and away games.
After 5 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat, the home team is on the 5th position, having gained 14 points. In the last game, they beat Hangzhou away by (0-1), after in the previous game they lost (2-0) away in a game against Shandong Luneng. This team is stronger when playing at home, since in the last 30 matches it registers 4 victories, 5 draws and 6 defeats as visitor; against 8 victories, 6 draws and 1 defeat at home. In their last 10 home games in all competitions, Henan Jianye have won 7 and drawn 3. Their attack has been scoring regularly, as they have managed to score in 6 of their last 8 games in this competition. There is 1 outstanding period in the last 20 home matches played for all competitions: they scored 10 of their 28 goals between the minutes (76′-90′).
Henan Jianye’s team has been performing a very positive campaign in the fight for their main objective of permanency and even dreaming of qualifying for the AFC Champions League, as they occupy, after eight rounds, the 3rd place in the league table, with the same 17 points of Shanghai Shenhua, four away from the second-placed Shandong Luneng, who has one more game played at this time. Javier Pereira’s side won 0-1 away to Zhejiang Professional last time out, putting them back on track after losing 2-0 away to Shandong Luneng in the penultimate round of the Chinese Super League.
The visiting team is currently on the 18th position, without any points earned, after 8 defeats. In the penultimate game, it lost at home against Dalian Professional by (0-3). In the last match, it lost away against Shandong Luneng by (2-0). This is a team that curiously presents more positive results away than at home, since in the last 30 games they register 4 victories, 5 draws and 6 defeats as visitor, with a total of 15 goals scored and 20 suffered; against 3 victories, 3 draws and 9 defeats at home, with a total of 22 goals scored and 32 suffered. In the last 10 away games played for all competitions, Guangzhou R&F won 2, drew 3 and lost 5.
For this competition, it registers a sequence of 8 defeats in the last games. Defensive solidity has not been their strong point, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 8 games in this competition. This is a team that rarely scores first. In fact, they haven’t managed to open the scoring in any of the last 8 matches for the CSL. In 8 games in this competition, it has never managed to turn the scoreboard around in the 8 games in which it has conceded the first goal. In the last 20 away games for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: scored 7 of their 19 goals between the minutes (76′-90′).
Guangzhou City team is feeling huge difficulties to adapt to the new reality and competitive context of the Chinese Super League and goes to the game occupying the 18th and last place in the league table, still with zero points after eight matches, being already six away from the maintenance zone, firstly occupied by Chengdu Rongcheng. In a serious results crisis, the team led by coach Jean-Paul van Gastel doesn’t seem to be able to get out of the negative situation, having come from a last matchday where they couldn’t resist the favouritism of the champions in title Shandong Luneng (2-0), away from home.
