Chengdu Rongcheng – Tianjin Jinmen Tiger : Preview & Prediction
Better City and Tianjin Teda meet in a match for the 9th round of the CSL. The two teams drew (1-1), on 16-06-2022, in the previous meeting for this edition of the league. The home/away status deserves particular attention, as despite this being a match between 15th and 10th in the league table, it is actually a clash between the 17th ranked team in home games and the 4th ranked team away.
After 6 draws and 2 defeats, the home team is currently in 15th position, with 6 points earned. In their last match, they drew with Cangzhou Mighty Lions at home (1-1), after the previous match they had drawn (0-0) away, in a match against Beijing Guoan. This is a team little affected by the home factor, as they achieved similar results at home and away. In their last 4 home matches for the championship, Better City drew 3 and lost 1, so they got 3 points out of a possible 12.
For this competition, they have recorded a sequence of 6 draws in their last matches and have not won any of their last 8 matches.
Chengdu Rongcheng have been on a fairly even keel in the race to stay in a year of promotion and come into this matchday in 15th place in the league table, first above the relegation zone, with a record six points, three ahead of Guangzhou Evergrande and Hebei. Unbeaten for six consecutive matches, the team led by coach Jung-won Seo reached a sixth consecutive draw on Monday after finishing the reception against Shijiazhuang with a one-all scoreline, following a goalless and goalless draw with Beijing Guoan (0-0).
The away team is currently in 10th position, with 11 points earned, after 3 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats. In the penultimate match, they won away against Shenzhen (2-3). In the last match, they lost at home to Beijing Guoan (1-2). Interestingly, this is a team that has achieved more positive results away than in their home stadium, winning 7 away points and only 4 at home. In their last 4 away matches for the championship, Tianjin Teda have 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, so they have taken 7 points out of a possible 12. Their defence has not been very solid, having conceded goals in 6 of their last 8 matches, but their attack has been scoring regularly, having scored goals in 7 of their last 8 matches in this competition. This is a team that rarely scores first: they only opened the scoring in 2 of their last 8 CSL matches, of these 2 they went into half-time ahead in all of them and won at the end of 90′ in all of them. In 8 matches in this tournament, they conceded the first goal 6 times and only managed 1 comeback.
The Tianjin Teda team has been able to lead a very interesting way in their fight for the goal of relegation, especially as they are far from being among the strongest teams in the Chinese championship. At this stage, coach Genwei Yu’s group is in 10th place in the league table, with the same 11 points as Changchun Yatai, one point ahead of Shenzhen and Dalian Pro and one point behind Wuhan Zall and Zhejiang Professional. After three consecutive wins and four unbeaten games, Tianjin Teda were defeated by Beijing Guoan (1-2) last Sunday, breaking their good form for the upcoming trip.
