Bitesize Prediction: Dandong Tengyue vs Qingdao West Coast – 13/09/23

Competition: Jia League

Market: Qingdao West Coast win

Odds: 3/5 @ 1xBet

Two sides who find themselves battling it out at opposite ends of the Jia League standings, Qingdao West Coast will travel to Dandong Tengyue on Wednesday morning.

Starting with the hosts, while Dandong Tengyue might have made their Jia League return this season, it is no secret that Wang Dan’s side are facing a real battle in their bid to avoid an immediate second-tier relegation. Although the Reds might have clinched back-to-back stalemate against Jiagxi Lushan and Dongguan Guanlian since opening September, the Liaoning-based outfit are still firmly looking over their shoulder at the drop zone. Continuing to struggle with their consistency since opening up the 2023 campaign, Wednesday’s hosts have failed to muster a single win from any of their previous seven Jia League appearances – a run that stems all the way back to July 23rd. Gaining a reputation for their extended issues in the final third, Dandong have notched just a single strike in over 300 minutes of action. It should also be highlighted, Dan’s struggling squad have mustered just one win in front of their own supporters since way back in the middle of May.

As for the visitors, while Qingdao might have been disappointed after only settling for a bottom-half finish last season, the West Coast have come roaring back this time around. In the midst of what has been a real Jia League flurry, Zoran Jankovic’s side find themselves sat in pole position to claim a shock top-tier return in 2023. Last seen over the weekend putting in another eye-catching display as they landed a routine 2-0 win at home against Dongguan Guanlian, the Whites open Wednesday’s showdown holding a four-point buffer from slipping out of the automatic promotion places. Likewise, opening September with an action-packed 3-2 victory away at Sichuan Jiuniu, Qingdao will certainly be smelling the chance to lay down another Jia League marker in midweek. In fact, the second-tier leaders have now mustered 19 points from just their previous seven Jia League appearances – a run that stems back to July 26th. Two sides who find themselves battling it out at opposite ends of the table, we are expecting an away victory here.
