Changchun Yatai vs Shanghai Shenhua Prediction and Betting Tips | June 29th 2025

The Chinese Super League returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Changchun Yatai and Shanghai Shenhua lock horns at the Changchun Stadium on Sunday. Having failed to win the last six meetings between the two teams, Ricardo Soares’ men will head into the weekend looking to get one over the visitors and secure back-to-back victories for the first time since August 2023.

Norwegian striker Ohi Omoijuanfo came up clutch for Changchun Yatai on Wednesday when he struck in the 77th minute to hand them a 1-0 victory over Qingdao West Coast.

This was a much-needed result for the Jilin outfit, who had lost each of their previous seven outings and were on a nine-game winless run across all competitions since mid-April.

Soares will hope the result over Qingdao can serve as a springboard for an upturn in form as Changchun find themselves rock-bottom in the Super League table with eight points from 15 matches.

Elsewhere, Shanghai Shenhua turned in an impressive team display last time out when they cruised to a 3-0 victory over Tianjin Jinmen Tiger on home turf.

Before that, Leonid Slutskiy’s men saw their four-game winning streak come to an end on June 14, when they fell to a 3-1 loss against Shenzhen Port City, one week before bouncing back in a 3-2 victory over Shanghai Port in the FA Cup.

Shanghai Shenhua have picked up 35 points from their 15 league matches so far to sit second in the standings, only behind first-placed Beijing Guoan on goal difference.
