BEST ODDS
Our pick: Bookmakers offer average 1.39 (implied 71.8%) for Both Teams to Score. Our experts calculate a 74.3% probability (an expert ratio of 1.35). We chose this bet because our experts rate it more likely than the bookmaker price implies (74.3% vs 71.8%), driven by both attacks scoring freely while both defences look leaky. That edge makes it our most confident selection for this match.

Match Preview

The model favours Dalian Zhixing to win against Hangzhou Greentown, projecting a scoreline of 2-1. Dalian Zhixing currently sits in 3rd place in the league, having accumulated 25 points from 17 matches with 8 wins, 1 draw, and 8 losses. They have scored 25 goals but conceded 31, resulting in a goal difference of -6. Their overall performance this season suggests they are more competitive, especially given their higher points tally compared to their opponents. On the other hand, Hangzhou Greentown is positioned 11th in the league with 17 points, having won 6, drawn 4, and lost 7 of their 17 matches. Their goal-scoring record of 23 goals against 29 conceded also indicates a struggle defensively, contributing to a negative goal difference of -6. Recent form has not been encouraging, with only one win in their last five matches, reflecting difficulties in securing consistent results. The model output suggests a win probability of 55% for Dalian Zhixing, while also indicating that a draw is plausible at 25%. One caveat to consider is the potential for Hangzhou Greentown to exploit any defensive lapses from Dalian, which could lead to an upset. The full method of this analysis is detailed in the "How We Reached This Prediction" section, conducted by The Daily Punt Analysis Team, using an in-house model that evaluates expected goals and actual results throughout the season.

Super League

In the last three matches between Hangzhou Greentown and Dalian Zhixing, Dalian Zhixing has won twice, with one draw and no wins for Hangzhou Greentown. The scorelines indicate a tendency for Dalian Zhixing to dominate, having secured a 3-0 victory and a narrow 1-0 win, while the draw was a low-scoring 1-1 affair. This suggests that Dalian Zhixing has been the stronger side historically, with Hangzhou Greentown struggling to find success in these encounters, particularly as they have not managed to win any of the last three meetings.

The Daily Punt Analysis Team

Data-driven football predictions and betting tips

This forecast was built by the The Daily Punt Analysis Team using our in-house statistical model. We feed the model two layers of data for every fixture: each team's recent expected goals (xG and xGA) and their actual goals scored and conceded, split by home and away venue. The numbers run through a Poisson distribution that produces a probability for every possible scoreline, which we then convert into fair odds for the 1X2, correct score, BTTS, and over/under markets.

Before publishing, we cross-check our fair odds against the prices the major bookmakers are offering. Where a bookmaker is paying out more than our model says is mathematically fair, we flag that market as a value bet on this page.
