Liaoning Tieren and Shanghai Port meet for the first time in the Chinese Super League, with both sides showing mixed results lately. Liaoning Tieren come in after a 5-0 win, but have struggled with consistency, while Shanghai Port are tough to beat but have frequently settled for draws. Both teams often concede, suggesting a high chance both will score (BTTS). The smart bet is for BTTS and an away win or draw, with Shanghai expected to use their experience to avoid defeat.

Liaoning Tieren vs Shanghai Port Predictions

Shanghai Port have picked up some form in recent weeks, and they should at least avoid defeat in an intriguing CSL contest.

I have stakes on BTTS and an away win or draw at Tiexi Stadium.

BTTS Likely on Friday


  • Liaoning Tieren have seen BTTS in 3 of their last 4 matches
  • Liaoning Tieren lost 6 of their last 9 matches
  • Liaoning Tieren have scored an average of 1.21 goals per game this season
  • Shanghai Port have seen BTTS in 7 of their last 9 matches
  • Shanghai Port are unbeaten in their last 5 matches 
  • Shanghai Port have scored an average of 1.5 goals per game this season

Liaoning Tieren and Shanghai Port Set For First-Ever Meeting

Liaoning Tieren and Shanghai Port will meet for the first time on Friday.

Liaoning Tieren Secure Back-to-Back Wins

Liaoning Tieren return to home comforts after a sensational 5-0 win at Zhejiang last weekend. Congolese forward Guy Mbenza bagged a hat-trick in a dominant road victory for the CSL newcomers. 

In a superb display of counter-attacking football, Tieren had just 39% possession, but proved lethal in front of goal with their five strikes coming from an xG of just 1.98. 

After a slow start to their maiden Super League campaign, Jung Won Seo’s side have picked up some form in the past month. Liaoning secured seven points from their last three CSL matches, including a 2-1 win against Hainiu earlier this month. They had lost six successive league games between April and May. 

Retaining consistency in their performances has been the biggest concern for Tieren. The Iron Men won three and lost three of six CSL games this season, while they had failed to keep a clean sheet in ten matches before their big win at Zhejiang. 

Fourteen games into the campaign, Liaoning Tieren sit eighth in the division, with 14 points on the board. 

Shanghai Port Held Again

Shanghai Port make the trip to Tiexi Stadium after being held to a 1-1 draw against Jinmen Tiger last weekend. Brazilian forward Leonardo’s fourth goal of the season gave Kevin Muscat’s men a first-half advantage before Bruno Xadas’s late penalty rescued a point for the Tigers. 

Despite creating the better opportunities, Shanghai were unable to find a winner at Pudong Football Stadium. Port had 12 attempts with a final xG of 1.86 but were forced to settle for a point. 

The CSL champions have now been held to draws in four of their last five matches, including each of three previous home fixtures. Shanghai now sit 12th in the Super League, with 12 points on the board. 

An inability to keep clean sheets has been the biggest concern for Port. Muscat’s men conceded at least one goal in all but two of 14 CSL matches this season. 

Predicted Lineups and Team News

Liaoning Tieren (4-1-4-1) Yan Zhang; Zang Yifeng, Mincheng Yuan, Felipe, Binbin Chen; Tixiang Li; Ange Kouame, Takahiro Kunimoto, Yinong Tian, Jeffinho; Guy Mbenza

Head coach Jung Won Seo is likely to name much of the same side that thrashed Zhejiang. Zang Yifeng could earn a recall after replacing Ximing Pan at the interval last weekend. 

Peng Li remains a long-term absentee with a broken tibia.

Shanghai Port (5-3-2) Junling Yan; Alex Yang, Zhen Wei, Tyias Browning, Umidjan Yusup, Shuai Li; Ruofan Liu, Yuan Zhang, Mateus Vital; Xinxiang Li, Leonardo

Port boss Muscat is unable to call on a handful of first-team players this week. Jiwen Kuai, Gabrielzinho, Jean Claude and Matt Orr miss out through injury, while veteran defender Shenchao Wang is also expected to remain sidelined.

Verdict

Shanghai should have the know-how to at least avoid defeat in a match where both teams should get on the scoresheet. I have my stakes on BTTS and an away win or draw.
