Wuhan Three Towns vs Shandong Luneng Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.67 expected goals for Wuhan Three Towns and 1.33 for Shandong Luneng, a combined total of 3.00.

Head-to-head

Head-to-head history is temporarily unavailable. The prediction is unaffected — it is built from current form, home and away performance, goals data and competition statistics.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Wuhan Three Towns win, at 45.4%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–1.

It puts both teams scoring at 60% and over 2.5 goals at 58%.

A 45% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
