Shandong Taishan vs Chengdu Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 8 November 2026
🔊 For four rounds in a row, Chengdu could have clinched the Super League title early, but they failed to score each time: one draw and three defeats. Now the leaders need just one point, but they will have to earn it away to Shandong Taishan.

The visitors do have the edge in head-to-head meetings, though: Chengdu have won the last four. Will that record help if the leaders’ attack remains silent?

⭐ Editor’s Pick
Chengdu’s matches have been low-scoring: the teams have scored fewer than four goals between them in five consecutive games. The main reason is the leaders’ attack: Chengdu have failed to score in four straight league rounds. The visitors have not scored more than two goals in any of their last five matches. The hosts have reason for optimism: Chengdu have conceded in 14 of their last 15 matches. We expect the visitors to draw a blank for the fifth time in a row, with no more than three goals on the scoreboard in total. Bet - Total Goals - Under 3.5.
