ℹ️ Team News: Shanghai Shenhua

Shanghai Shenhua manager Leonid Slutskiy has to currently contend with reduced team options. Makhtar Gueye (Thigh problems), Saulo Mineiro (Thigh problems), Shenglong Jiang (Kidney problems), Xi Wu (Thigh problems) and Nico Yennaris (Leg injury) will not be playing here.

🧠 Prediction

We’re of the view that Tianjin Jinmen Tiger will surely be able to find the net against this Shanghai Shenhua team, although one goal possibly won’t be as many as they will have scored against them.

We’re therefore expecting a very close game with a 1-2 win for Shanghai Shenhua after the 90. It will be interesting to see how this one goes.
