Shanghai SIPG to enhance title chances against Hebei
2592
On Wednesday morning, Shanghai SIPG will look to keep pace with the leaders at the top of the Chinese Super League, as they host inconsistent Hebei CFFC at the Shanghai Stadium.
Shanghai SIPG head into the clash in good form having won their last five games in all competitions, including progressing past South Korean outfit Jeonbuk Motors in the AFC Champions League. Vitor Pereira’s team have hit form at a good time in the Chinese top-flight too, winning their last four league matches.
The home side has been highly effective at both ends of the field. They have the third most potent attack, while only the top two Beijing Guoan and GZ Evergrande have better defensive records in the Chinese top-flight.
Their recent good form has led them to third place in the table, level with GZ Evergrande and just two points behind leaders Beijing Guoan.
A stellar recent home record in the Super League has played a big part in their position in the table, as six wins from their last seven matches is an impressive record.
Brazilian duo Oscar and Hulk have been instrumental to the home sides title challenge, scoring five and seven goals respectively in the Chinese Super League this season.
Recent history of this fixture favours Shanghai SIPG, as they are unbeaten in seven league matches against the visitors, winning five games in the process.
Hebei have been wildly inconsistent of late and need to be careful not to get sucked into the relegation battle. The visitors are currently 12th place in the table, just five points clear of the relegation zone. A record of just three wins in their last 15 Super League games does not bode well for an away win.
Considering the two teams league positions, it is unsurprising that Forebet predicts that Shanghai SIPG will record a victory in a high-scoring clash.
