👉 Our prediction is: Dalian Zhixing to win the 1st half

Dalian Zhixing will head in to face Shanghai SIPG with a tough task as the away side. Their recent results and performances have been far from impressive, but in our opinion, they are being a bit too underestimated.

We are tipping Dalian Zhixing to win the first half because we see decent value in their odds. They still possess enough quality to cause some concern against Shanghai SIPG, at least until half-time.
