Henan Jianye vs Dalian Zhixing Prediction 31 July 2026
🔊 There's already plenty of bad blood between these two this season. Dalian Yingbo beat Henan in the league, then came to Zhengzhou just a week ago and knocked them out of the Chinese Cup on penalties. Now the hosts get another shot at them. The table gives both clubs reason to want the points - just for different reasons.
Head-to-Head
The last official match between these two sides took place on 21 July 2026 and ended 1-1. Here's the key stats from that game (Henan Jianye were the home side):
- possession: 53% vs 47%;
- corners: 7 vs 5;
- fouls: 18 vs 14;
- yellow cards: 2 vs 2;
- shots on target: 4 vs 4.
📊 The two sides have already met twice this year. The first Super League match ended in a 2-1 home win for Dalian Yingbo. The second came on July 21 in the Chinese Cup - 1-1 after 90 minutes and extra time, then Dalian Yingbo edged it on penalties, 6-5. Both matches were tight, never more than a goal in it. And both times, each side scored - which tells you something about how these two match up right now.
Head-to-head statistics Henan Jianye - Dalian Zhixing
Henan Jianye Team Overview
The team's last official match was played on in the Super League (Shandong Taishan at home, Henan Jianye away). The match ended 1-2.
Match stats (Henan Jianye vs Shandong Taishan):
- possession: 38% vs 62%;
- corners: 6 vs 3;
- fouls: 16 vs 11;
- yellow cards: 3 vs 2;
- shots on target: 4 vs 8.
July changed the mood around Nam Ki-il's side considerably. After a rough patch, Henan found some stability and arrived at this important stretch of the season on the back of some strong results. A win away at Shandong Taishan and a 5-1 home thrashing of Qingdao Hainiu showed the attack is clicking again.
The defensive problems haven't gone away, though. Lapses in concentration at key moments have already cost the hosts points more than once this season. Which is part of why this match is also a test of whether Henan have actually learned anything from their recent cup defeat to this same opponent.
Match Results: Henan Jianye
Dalian Yingbo FC Team Overview
The visitors' last official match took place in the Super League (Zhejiang at home, Dalian Yingbo away). The match ended 3-2.
Stats from that game (Dalian Yingbo vs Zhejiang):
- possession: 57% vs 43%;
- corners: 4 vs 3;
- fouls: 18 vs 9;
- yellow cards: 4 vs 1;
- shots on target: 7 vs 7.
For a first-season side, fourth place is still a real achievement - but the last few rounds have shown that keeping up that pace is getting harder. The 2-3 defeat to Zhejiang underlined the team's main problem: the attack keeps producing goals, but the defence is making mistakes more and more often.
Dalian Yingbo's approach isn't about to change. The visitors like to play with confidence, push forward and rarely drop their philosophy even away from home. That gets them chances in the final third, but it also leaves space at the back for the opposition to exploit.

⭐️ Editor's Prediction
The recent cup exit will give the hosts extra motivation, but a tight, defensive game seems unlikely here. Both sides prefer to attack, and recent results back that up. Henan have scored and conceded in six of their last seven Super League matches - and in five straight. Dalian Yingbo have the same pattern, trading goals in six consecutive games. The most logical pick for this one is Both Teams To Score - Yes.
