Welcome to our Chengdu Better City vs Henan Jianye prediction, where we break down the numbers, recent form, and tactical trends ahead of this intriguing Chinese Super League matchup. Whether you’re a stats enthusiast, a casual fan, or someone looking for smart betting tips, you’ll find plenty to chew on here. Let’s take a closer look at what makes this fixture worth your attention.
The stage is set at the Wuliangye Sports Center Stadium in Chengdu, where the home side—currently sitting pretty in 2nd place—will welcome 11th-placed Henan Jianye. Chengdu Better City have been the league’s model of consistency, racking up 17 wins, 7 draws, and just 3 losses in 27 matches. Their home form is even more impressive: 10 wins, 3 draws, and only a single defeat. If you’re a fan of possession-based football, Chengdu are your team—expect them to boss the ball with an estimated 68% possession.
Tactically, Chengdu favor a disciplined 3-4-3 system, making the most of their wide players and pressing high up the pitch. Brazilian forward Felipe Sousa has been in fine form, notching three goals in his last five outings. The supporting cast includes reliable names like Dianzuo Liu in goal, Timo Letschert marshalling the defense, and midfielders Pedro Delgado and Tim Chow pulling the strings.
Henan Jianye, on the other hand, have been a bit of a rollercoaster this season. With 9 wins, 6 draws, and 13 losses, they’ve struggled for consistency, especially away from home where they’ve managed just 2 wins in their last 10 trips. Still, they’re no pushovers in attack—scoring in 9 of their last 10 league matches. Frank Acheampong is the man to watch, with five goals in his last five games. The likes of L. Maia, I. Maidana, and W. Cardoso provide some creative spark, but defensive frailties have often let them down.
Looking at the head to head record, Chengdu Better City have the slight edge: 3 wins to Henan’s 2, with 3 draws in their last eight meetings. Goals tend to be shared out, with Chengdu netting 10 and Henan 8 in those matches. Their most recent face-off in August 2025 ended 0-0, but don’t let that fool you—previous encounters have averaged 2.25 goals per game.
Now, let’s talk numbers and betting tips. The odds are heavily stacked in favor of the home team: a Chengdu win is priced at 1.243, a draw at 5.1, and a Henan victory at a whopping 7.7. Our AI’s best tip is HS2+ (Chengdu to score at least two goals), though with a trust rating of just 2.4/10 and odds of 1.24, it’s not exactly the boldest shout. Still, given Chengdu’s attacking firepower and Henan’s leaky defense, it’s a logical pick.
For the classic 1x2 market, the AI is leaning towards a home win with a trust level of 2.5. Over 2.5 goals is another recommended play—confidence level 2.4 and odds of 1.2433—reflecting both teams’ tendency to get on the scoresheet. The expected final score? A tidy 2-1 in favor of Chengdu Better City, with a goalless first half predicted before things open up after the break.
In terms of gameplay, expect Chengdu to dominate possession and create more chances (14 shots predicted, with 5 on target), while Henan will look to hit on the counter (8 shots, just 1 on target). The home side’s superior squad depth and tactical discipline should see them through, but Henan’s attacking threats mean they can’t be taken lightly.
All signs point to a Chengdu Better City victory, but football has a way of surprising us—just ask anyone who bet against Henan in their last away draw! Still, with Chengdu’s unbeaten run, strong home record, and attacking options, this looks like a safe bet. Our Chengdu Better City vs Henan Jianye prediction: 2-1 to the hosts, with a cautious first half followed by a more open second period. If you’re looking for betting tips, the home win and over 2.5 goals markets are your best friends here.
Whether you’re tuning in for the tactics, the drama, or the thrill of a smart bet, this Super League encounter promises plenty. Good luck, and may your predictions be as sharp as Chengdu’s attack!
