Shenzhen and Shandong will duke it out in China this Friday lunchtime

Shandong might not have everything their own way in the Chinese Super League on Friday, says Tobias Gourlay

  • Shenzhen have netted in 7/11 at home

  • Shandong have conceded in 8/11 on the road

  • Back BTTS


Shenzhen FC v Shandong Taishan
Friday 12:35

Maccabi Haifa cancelled Young Boys' big night out in Israel as they held the visitors to a goalless draw.

We're heading east today for the Chinese Super League game between Shenzhen FC and Shandong Taishan on Friday lunchtime. The second-placed visitors are heavy favourites to see off the bottom-of-the-table hosts, but there's half a chance the home team could at least nick a goal...

Shandong are only W2-D6-L3 away from home this season. They have scored themselves in nine straight, but they have managed just three clean sheets across all 11 outings.

Shenzhen have the league's worst defence: they've leaked 17 in seven at Shenzhen Universiade Sports Centre. The Phoenix have scored themselves in 7/11, however - and three previous meetings with top-five outfits like Shandong have finished 1-4, 1-3 and 1-3. We'll take the hosts to grab a goal and help deliver a BTTS punt.

Back Both Teams To Score @ 2.021/1
