Shandong Taishan vs Qingdao Jonoon Prediction 14 August 2026
🔊 On paper, the picture looks fairly straightforward: Shandong are in the upper half of the table, while Qingdao are at the bottom and come into this match on a run of five consecutive defeats. But their meetings this year add some intrigue. It is Qingdao who have won the last two head-to-head matches, and in the most recent one they did so very convincingly (4:1). So the hosts here need not only to continue their push for the top positions, but also to finally turn around an unfavourable pattern in this rivalry.

The last official match between the teams took place on 26 April 2026 and ended 4:1. Here is the comparative statistics from that match (home side - Qingdao Zhunneng):

- fouls: 10 vs 15;

During the summer the team went through a rough patch, losing to Dalian Yingbo and Henan, but a 1:0 win over Shanghai Port helped to stabilise things somewhat. In attack, much still depends on Krizan da Cruz, who remains one of the main threats going forward. Valeri Kazaishvili is responsible for creativity and ball movement in midfield. Shandong have no serious injury concerns ahead of this match, so the coaching staff can count on their usual core group.

Qingdao Jonoon Team Overview
The current away side's last official match took place in the Super League (home side - Qingdao Zhongneng, away side - Shanghai Shenhua). The match ended 0:1.
The match statistics were as follows (Qingdao Zhongneng vs Shanghai Shenhua):
- possession: 51% vs 49%;
- corners: 6 vs 6;
- fouls: 13 vs 13;
- yellow cards: 2 vs 0;

The visitors are in a very different position. After 22 matches they have just 14 points, and their losing streak has now stretched to five rounds. In their last three matches the team has failed to score, and they have been conceding for 18 matches in a row. The main burden once again falls on Mou Pengfei, who constantly has to bail out his teammates after defensive errors. In attack, Qingdao are relying on the individual play of Yo Eboa and Malcolm Ejuma, but so far that has not been enough to get out of the crisis. Milan Ristić continues to look for a more reliable combination in the defensive line.

⭐️Editor's Pick
Looking at current form alone, Shandong should look like the clear favourites. But it is the head-to-head record that gives reason to approach this match with more caution. Qingdao have already beaten their opponents twice this season, and the fixture between these two regularly produces goals. There are also a few specific streaks worth noting. Qingdao have scored in 8 of their last 9 away matches, Shandong have found the net in seven consecutive Super League meetings between these sides, and the last five matches between these teams have ended with both teams scoring. That is why the most interesting option here looks like Both Teams to Score (Yes).
