- Zhejiang Professional’s away record has been patchy in the 2025 Super League, winning just one of their last three away matches, losing twice.
- Qingdao Hainiu are unbeaten in two home games this season, winning one and drawing one.
- Zhejiang Professional have scored ten goals away from home in the 2025 season, Qingdao Hainiu have conceded seven.
Differing philosophies on show
The clash of styles will be a major factor in this Super League matchup, with the Qingdao Hainiu vs Zhejiang Professional FC prediction expected to hinge on whether Zhejiang can stretch the game, while Qingdao will look to frustrate and pounce on counter-attacking opportunities.
Zhejiang have been the more progressive team, however, since Raul Caneda took over as head coach in January 2025 and instilled a more free-flowing and attacking identity.
They’ve got a livewire in Yudong Wang who has scored eight goals in 13 league matches, three of which have come in the last five, but also have a creative force in Franko Andrijasevic who has three assists in their last five league matches.
Qingdao lack a prolific striker
Qingdao, on the other hand, have Wellington Silva to rely on as their main hope of getting a goal and he has six in 14 Super League matches. New boss Xiaopeng Li, who has taken over at the club in January 2025, has done a pretty good job so far in keeping them afloat in the relegation zone, but according to this Qingdao Hainiu vs Zhejiang Professional FC preview, they have been too reliant on Silva for goals.
The hosts have won just one, drawn four and lost two of their seven home games in the 2025 campaign, although they have kept it tight at the back with just seven goals conceded in that sequence.
Sides to score is the bet to make
Zhejiang are the favorites here at +115, while Qingdao are +220 and the draw +250. The Qingdao Hainiu vs Zhejiang Professional FC odds suggest that all three look big given the recent form of these teams, but both sides have been inconsistent and Zhejiang have been shaky on the road this season.
Ten months after Zhejiang beat Qingdao 4-3 in a 2024 Super League classic, it would be foolish to predict which way this game will go given both teams have one win and two draws from their four head-to-heads in all competitions. But our Qingdao Hainiu vs Zhejiang Professional FC prediction leans towards Zhejiang being slightly favoured and both defences looking a little fragile, making the Both Teams to Score market look especially appealing. If you are looking for guidance, these Qingdao Hainiu vs Zhejiang Professional FC betting tips recommend considering both teams to find the net.
