7.5/10Dalian Zhixing Outclass Tianjin Teda in Commanding 3-1 Home Win
Dalian Zhixing delivered a confident performance at the Dalian Suoyuwan Football Stadium, defeating Tianjin Teda 3-1 in a match that saw both sides create chances, but the hosts ultimately proved more clinical. An early goal set the tone for Dalian, who controlled possession (52%) and looked purposeful in attack, while Tianjin Teda, despite fielding a defensively robust 5-3-2, struggled to contain the home side's movement and incisiveness in the final third. Tianjin Teda briefly threatened a comeback with an equalizer early in the second half, but Dalian's response was emphatic. Two further goals, including a late clincher, ensured the points stayed in Dalian, while the visitors' frustration was reflected in four yellow cards.

Dalian Zhixing
Dalian Zhixing started brightly, taking the lead within the opening five minutes and maintaining a slight edge in possession throughout. Their 4-2-3-1 formation allowed for fluid attacking play, with the midfield trio supporting Frank Acheampong up front to good effect. Defensively, they remained composed, limiting Tianjin to just five shots on target and keeping their discipline with only one yellow card. The hosts responded well to Tianjin's second-half equalizer, showing resilience and tactical flexibility to reclaim the lead and seal the win with a late goal. Their ability to create clear chances (seven shots, four on target) and capitalize at key moments underpinned a deserved victory.
Key Players
Strengths
Weaknesses
Tianjin Teda
Tianjin Teda set up with a defensive 5-3-2 formation, aiming to frustrate Dalian and hit on the break. While they matched the hosts for shots (eight total, five on target) and kept possession close (48%), their inability to convert pressure into sustained attacking threat proved costly. The visitors did well to equalize early in the second half, but lapses in concentration and mounting disciplinary issues (four yellow cards) undermined their efforts. Despite flashes of quality from the likes of Bruno Xadas and Guilherme Schettine, Tianjin struggled to cope with Dalian's late surge and ultimately faded as the match wore on.
Key Players
Strengths
Weaknesses
Tactical Analysis
Dalian Zhixing's 4-2-3-1 formation provided both attacking impetus and defensive solidity, allowing them to control the midfield and transition effectively. The trio behind Acheampong interchanged positions fluidly, stretching Tianjin's back five and creating space for incisive passes. Dalian's pressing forced errors from Tianjin, particularly in the second half as the visitors chased the game. Tianjin Teda's 5-3-2 setup was effective in the opening stages, crowding the defensive third and limiting Dalian's space. However, their lack of width and reliance on counterattacks left them vulnerable once Dalian regained the lead. The away side's discipline faltered under pressure, as evidenced by the spate of yellow cards, and they struggled to adapt tactically as Dalian pushed for a third goal.
Turning Point
Dalian's second goal in the 70th minute, which restored their lead and shifted momentum decisively in their favor.
Man of the Match
Nicolae Stanciu
Instrumental in midfield, orchestrating attacks and maintaining composure throughout.
Dalian Zhixing vs Tianjin Teda: Match Preview
Dalian Zhixing enter this fixture as the league’s most in-form side, having rattled off five consecutive wins and surging into second place. Their recent run has seen them dispatch opponents with authority, netting 11 goals and conceding only twice in their last five, while their home record remains formidable. Tianjin Teda, though 12th in the table, have also found a purple patch, winning four of their last five, but a 3-1 defeat to Shanghai SIPG last time out has checked their momentum.
The tactical contrast is stark: Dalian’s attack is firing on all cylinders, averaging 13.2 shots and 6 on target per game in this winning run, and they’ve scored in every match. Their ability to strike early—five first-half goals in five matches—will test a Tianjin side that has preferred to sit deep and counter, reflected in just 33% recent possession and a modest 1.2 goals scored per game. While Tianjin’s away defence is solid (12 conceded in 14), their low shot output (9.2 per game) may not be enough to keep pace if Dalian start quickly.
Given the form lines, the model expects Dalian’s attacking momentum and home advantage to prove decisive, though Tianjin’s defensive structure and recent H2H edge mean it may not be straightforward. Expect Dalian to dictate tempo and create the better chances, but Tianjin’s set-piece threat and resilience could keep them in touch. A 2-1 home win is the likeliest outcome, with Dalian’s depth in attack the key difference.

The Case For This Dalian Zhixing vs Tianjin Teda Prediction
Dalian Zhixing are riding a five-match winning streak, surging into second place and playing with a confidence that has seen them average over two goals per game in recent weeks. Tianjin Teda, while sitting in the bottom half, have also enjoyed a strong run with four wins in their last five, though their most recent outing ended in defeat and exposed some defensive frailties. Both sides have plenty of momentum, but Dalian’s is the more explosive, especially at home. Statistically, Dalian’s attack has been relentless: 13.2 shots and 6 on target per match over the last five, with no failures to score and three clean sheets. Their home form (10 wins, 26 goals in 14 matches) puts them among the league’s elite, and they’ve shown a tendency to start fast, netting five first-half goals in their last five. Tianjin Teda, meanwhile, have relied on a more conservative approach, with just 33% possession and under 10 shots per game recently, but have eked out results through defensive discipline and opportunism, especially away (only 12 conceded in 14 away games). The model expects Dalian’s attacking momentum and home advantage to edge a contest where both teams’ recent form will be tested. Tianjin Teda’s defensive structure may keep things tight early, but Dalian’s shot volume and variety of scorers (Acheampong, Stanciu, Luo Jing) should eventually tell. The most plausible risk is Tianjin’s knack for grinding out results against Dalian—unbeaten in the last three H2H—but the current trajectory points to a 2-1 home win.
Key Factors at a Glance
Attack
- →Tianjin Teda have won four of their last five, but their shot and possession numbers are considerably lower than Dalian’s.

Final Verdict
Dalian Zhixing 2–1 Tianjin TedaDalian Zhixing’s five-match winning streak, underpinned by a surging attack and strong home record, makes them favourites for this clash. The single strongest data point is their 2.2 goals per game and three clean sheets in the last five, suggesting both ends of the pitch are functioning at a high level. The main risk is Tianjin Teda’s H2H record and ability to frustrate with a low-possession, counter-attacking style—if Dalian are wasteful or Tianjin nick an early goal, the script could flip.
