With the Chinese Super League making its return from June’s international break in midweek, we are treated to a host of intriguing battles.
Ahead of a stacked top-flight schedule in midweek, we have found a pair of Super League fixtures that can offer a great return for your Wednesday flutter.
12:35 Tianjin Jinmen Tiger vs Qingdao Hainiu
While Tianjin might have been disappointed after only scrapping a top-half finish last season, Wednesday’s hosts have certainly made a string of improvements since opening the 2023 campaign. Marking their return from the international break with a deserved 2-0 victory away at Wuxi Wugou while on FA Cup duties, the mood in You Genwei’s camp should be at a continued high.
Punching their Round of 16 ticket over the weekend, the Tigers are remarkably yet to taste a single domestic defeat from their first 13 appearances across all competitions.
Gaining a string of plaudits from across China this year and looking to make another Super League statement in midweek, it is no secret that Genwei’s side have their sights set on clinching a lucrative AFC Champions League ticket this season.
Continuing to gain a reputation for their defensive resolve, it should be highlighted that Tianjin have shipped just one goal in their last three domestic showdowns.
Although Qingdao Hainiu might have extended on their own FA Cup adventure last week following a nail-biting penalties victory against Dandong Tengyue, that doesn’t cover what has been an extended rut.
Heading into the international break with a toothless 1-0 loss at home against Shanghai Shenhua, Antonio Carreno’s side have lost each of their last four Super League appearances – a run that stems back to May 19th.
Likewise, losing each of those four straight top-flight matchups by a 1-0 scoreline, the Hainiu face a stern test on Wednesday morning.

12:35 Zhejiang Professional vs Meizhou Hakka
Marking their return from the international break with a rampant display last week as they extended on their FA Cup adventure thanks to a 4-1 romp away at Sichuan Jiuniu, Zhejiang Professional have certainly bounced back from their downbeat start to the 2023 campaign. Skyrocketing up the Super League standings, the Green Giants should be smelling a golden chance on Wednesday night.
In fact, along with opening June with a thumping 3-0 victory at home against Shenzhen, Jordi Vinyals’ side are unbeaten in each of their last six straight domestic appearances – a run that stems back to May 14th.
With their extended purple patch underlined by an action-packed 3-2 win against Beijing Guoan, the one-time Barcelona coach will be excited by his side’s free-scoring displays in the final third.
Notching 16 goals on their six-match unbeaten run, Zhejiang have also bagged a trio of strikes in back-to-back appearances on home soil.
On the flip side, heading into the international break with a lively 3-2 loss at home against Cangzhou on June 9th, Meizhou Hakka are tipped as a real relegation contender in 2023.
Along with opening June with a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Henan Songshan Longmen, Wednesday’s guests are without a win from any of their last six Super League appearances.
With that extended rut stemming all the way back to May 10th, Meizhou have also lost each of their last three top-flight away fixtures by an aggregate score of 7-2.
