Dalian Zhixing vs Tianjin Jinmen Tiger Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 8 November 2026
🔊 In the second half of the season, Dalian Yingbo cut the gap to Chengdu from 18 points to three, taking the title race to the final round. Li Guoxu’s side won both meetings with the leaders. A win over Tianjin Jinmen Tiger will therefore be enough for them if Chengdu lose away to Shandong Taishan. But Tianjin are difficult opponents: Dalian have taken just one point from a possible nine in their last three head-to-head meetings. Can they end that run in the biggest match of the season?
Head-to-Head
Tianjin Jinmen Tiger won the most recent Super League meeting 1-0. Dalian Yingbo had 66% possession and took 16 shots to the hosts’ seven, but managed only two shots on target compared with four for the hosts.
In three head-to-head meetings, Tianjin Jinmen Tiger have won twice. The other match ended in a draw. They scored in every game and were never behind at half-time - in fact, they won all three first halves.
Head-to-head statistics Dalian Zhixing - Tianjin Jinmen Tiger
Dalian Yingbo FC Team Overview
Dalian Yingbo lost 4-3 to Yunnan Yukun in their latest Football Association Cup match. The teams were level on shots at 15-15, while the visitors had more shots on target, 8-6, but finished the match with two players sent off.
Dalian Yingbo go into the decisive match with a depleted squad. The Chinese Cup semi-final on 1 November came at a high cost: they came back from two goals down and took the lead, but finished with nine men and lost to Yunnan Yukun (3-4). Li Guoxu acknowledged that the two red cards were the turning point. Sun Yue was sent off for a second yellow card and will not play against Tianjin Teda. Delgado received a straight red for striking an opponent on the head with his hand in an off-the-ball incident. On 5 November, the Chinese Football Association's disciplinary committee suspended him for four matches. The hosts have something to build on: Dalian have gone seven consecutive home matches unbeaten.

Tianjin Teda Team Overview
In the previous Super League round, Tianjin Jinmen Tiger lost 3-1 to Shanghai Port. The hosts had more shots, 13 to 10, and matched their opponents for shots on target, 5-5, but conceded three goals.
Tianjin Jinmen Tiger have nothing to play for, but are not promising to go easy on anyone. The team started the season with a ten-point deduction, yet secured their Super League place with two rounds to spare. Coach Yu Genwei does not intend to rotate the squad: “Unless there are special circumstances or it’s a week with two matches, we won’t make changes to the line-up ourselves.” Tianjin are particularly difficult to face away from home: they have not lost by more than one goal in 13 consecutive away matches. Even the league leaders found that out: in October, Chengdu lost 1-0 to them at home.

Match Result Prediction
Tianjin Jinmen Tiger have not lost by more than one goal in 13 consecutive away matches. They have lost four of their 14 away matches this season. The risk is that Dalian Yingbo have won six of their last seven home games. Even so, we do not expect the hosts to win by two goals. The bet is Tianjin Jinmen Tiger - Handicap +1.5 at 1.75*.
Corners Prediction
Dalian Yingbo have taken more than five corners in just one of their last seven matches. We do not expect the hosts to take a sixth corner. The bet is Dalian Yingbo Team Total Corners - Under 5.5 at 1.90*.
Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's calculations, the top three scorelines are 1:0 (12.71%), 2:0 (10.57%) and 1:1 (10.05%). Of these, 1:0 is the most likely.
*The odds are approximate and may vary between bookmakers.
⭐ Editor’s Pick
Dalian Yingbo have scored in 18 consecutive matches across all competitions. There is no reason to expect that run to end in the decisive round. Tianjin are not far behind: the visitors have scored in 12 of their last 13 Super League matches. The hosts’ defence rarely comes to their rescue, either: both teams have scored in 6 of their last 7 home league matches. We expect the visitors to score in reply and Dalian to win by one goal, keeping their title hopes alive. Bet - Both Teams to Score - Yes.
Will this prediction come true?
