The Chinese Super League continues this week and will see Shenzhen host Changchun Yatai on Wednesday afternoon.
Shenzhen were beaten 3-1 by Shanghai Port last time out and were fortunate not to have lost by a larger margin. They have now played back-to-back games without a win and have won just once since the Chinese Super League resumed.

The visitors ended a three-game winless run last time out, beating Guangzhou City 2-1 on home turf. After falling behind in the first 20 minutes of the game, Changchun Yatai displayed commendable ambition to turn the game around and pick up maximum points.
Changchun Yatai sit a place above their midweek hosts in the table with 35 points. They will now be looking to build on their latest result when they play on Wednesday.

Shenzhen have won just one of five games since the league resumed earlier this month. Their defensive frailties have been a major reason for their struggles as they have picked up just one clean sheet in their last 11 league games.
Changchun Yatai ended a three-game winless run last time out as they picked up a 2-1 home victory over Guangzhou City. They have now scored at least once in all but one of their last 15 league games and should be able to get the win on Wednesday.
Prediction: Shenzhen 1-2 Changchun Yatai
