Guangzhou Evergrande vs Shanghai SIPG Match Preview

Guangzhou Evergrande will enter this match with the clear target to get all three points against their main rivals. They are ranked at the second place for now, but with a game in hand and in case of a win they would regain the first spot and almost take out of the race Shanghai SIPG. They have had some inconsistent results in the past five games, with a single win two draws and two loses. This came also because they were playing in the AFC Champions League, but they are out now, so they will fully focused in the league for their three remaining games. With 60 goals in 27 games, they have the best attack in the league, averaging at least two goals per game and in front of their fans they should continue this trend.

Shanghai SIPG, on the other side, are ranked at the third place with 62 points and come in almost a perfect form, with four wins and a single loss in their last five matches. They were eliminated from the AFC Champions League earlier and the results changed as they even beat direct title rivals Beijing Gouan on the road. They have scored 55 goals in 27 games which makes them the second best attack in the league and they know they must win here in order to hope for the title. A win here would take them to 65 points.

In conclusion, I think both teams could score at least a goal in this game. They know they must win, so it will be played in offense from them. Three of their last five h2h games between them saw both teams score at least a goal.
