Shanghai Port come into this one with a mixed recent league run, but they have still shown they can put together a strong home performance, as seen in the 4-0 win over Wuhan Three Towns. Zhejiang have been more uneven away from home, with heavy defeats at Chengdu Rongcheng and Wuhan Three Towns sitting alongside two wins and a draw in their last five league matches. With Shanghai Port at Shanghai Stadium and the head-to-head record leaning their way in recent meetings, the home side look the more reliable pick.
Zhejiang do have enough in their recent results to suggest they can make this competitive, especially after taking points against Tianjin Jinmen Tiger and winning at Yunnan Yukun. Shanghai Port have also been drawing more often than winning lately, so this may not be straightforward for the hosts. Even so, the combination of home advantage and the stronger recent head-to-head edge points towards a narrow Shanghai Port success. Match Prediction: Shanghai Port 2-1 Zhejiang
Form Guide & Team Overview
Shanghai Port
Shanghai Port’s recent league form has been mixed, with two draws, one win and two defeats in their last five. The standout result in that run is the 4-0 home win over Wuhan Three Towns, but they have also drawn 2-2 away to Beijing Guoan and 1-1 at home to Shenzhen Peng City.
That suggests a side capable of scoring but not always controlling games for the full 90 minutes. The defeats to Qingdao Hainiu and Chongqing Tonglianglong FC show there has been some inconsistency in their results.

Zhejiang
Zhejiang’s recent league form is also uneven, but they have picked up more positive results than Shanghai Port in the last five. They drew 1-1 with Tianjin Jinmen Tiger, beat Yunnan Yukun 2-1 away and beat Shenzhen Peng City 2-1 at home.
The concern is the size of their away defeats, with a 0-4 loss to Chengdu Rongcheng and a 0-2 loss to Wuhan Three Towns. That makes their away record in this sample look less secure, even if the recent wins show they can still compete.

Team News & Injury Report
Shanghai Port
- Wang Shenchao (Hip problems)
Zhejiang
- No injuries have been reported for the current season.
Lineups & Tactical Setup
Shanghai Port (5-4-1)
Predicted lineup: Yan Junling (Goalkeeper), Alex Yang (Defender), Shimeng Bao (Defender), Umidjan Yusup (Defender), Wei Zhen (Defender), Zhang Linpeng (Defender), Liu Zhurun (Midfielder), Mateus Vital (Midfielder), Xinxiang Li (Midfielder), Zhang Yuan (Midfielder), Leonardo (Attacker)
Shanghai Port’s predicted 5-4-1 should give them a solid base, with plenty of bodies behind the ball and a clear focus on keeping Zhejiang’s attacking midfielders in front of them. It also leaves Leonardo as the main outlet, so their transitions and direct play will likely be built around getting him into useful positions.
Zhejiang (4-2-3-1)
Predicted lineup: Chunyu Dong (Goalkeeper), Aihui Zhang (Defender), Guowen Sun (Defender), Haofan Liu (Defender), Tong Lei (Defender), Alexandru Mitriță (Midfielder), Jiaqi Zhang (Midfielder), Jin-seob Park (Midfielder), Marko Tolic (Midfielder), Yudong Wang (Midfielder), Qianglong Tao (Attacker)
Zhejiang’s predicted 4-2-3-1 gives them a balanced structure, with two deeper midfielders helping to protect the back four and support the build-up. That shape should also allow Alexandru Mitriță and the wider attackers to feed Qianglong Tao with enough service to threaten on the break and in settled possession.
Key Battles & Players to Watch
| Shanghai Port | Zhejiang | Key Battle Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Shanghai Port | Zhejiang | Leonardo will be up against Aihui Zhang, and that duel could decide how much Shanghai Port can carry the ball into dangerous areas. |
| Shanghai Port | Zhejiang | Liu Zhurun against Alexandru Mitriță is a key midfield battle because both players can influence how quickly their side moves from defence into attack. |
| Shanghai Port | Zhejiang | Leonardo is key for Shanghai Port because he is the main attacking reference in the predicted shape and the obvious route to goal. |
| Shanghai Port | Zhejiang | Qianglong Tao is key for Zhejiang because he leads the line in the 4-2-3-1 and will be the main player looking to finish their attacks. |
