Shenhua to score and win against Yatai
The Changchun Yatai vs Shanghai Shenhua preview highlights that Changchun Yatai’s new manager, Ricardo Soares, has not yet been able to turn the team’s performance around since his appointment in May 2025, nor have they picked up a single home win in the ongoing Super League 2025 season (2 draws, 4 losses).
Yatai are at the bottom of the Super League 2025 standings with 5 points from 14 matches and are without a home win in the competition this term. 4 goals in 6 Super League 2025 home matches tells its own story, as does the average number of goals that Yatai are averaging per game this season (0.67).
Long Tan is Changchun Yatai’s talisman with 7 of their 13 league goals, but he has had no support up top in recent games, scoring all 3 of the team’s goals in their previous 5 matches.
Shanghai are Shenhua
The Shenhua are in second place in the Super League 2025 with 32 points from 14 matches and are just behind the league leaders. Leonid Slutsky has done a remarkable job since taking over as manager in December 2023, instilling a free-flowing attacking style to the club that has seen them right at the top of the table.
Saulo Mineiro is their main attacking threat with 8 goals in 14 league appearances and provides a constant goal threat to opposing defenders with his pace and precision. Creative midfielder João Carlos Teixeira will orchestrate Shenhua’s attacking play and find space in the transition, providing an assist on a regular basis.
Considering the current form of both teams, our Changchun Yatai vs Shanghai Shenhua prediction favors another strong attacking display from the away side.
