Chongqing Tongliang Long

Head-to-Head

• Shanghai Jiading Huilong Ningbo Professional FC are winless in their last 4 games against Chongqing Tongliang Long, losing 3 times and drawing once.
• Shanghai have won 1 and drawn 1 of their last 2 at home, while Chongqing have won 1, drawn 1 and lost 1 of their last 3 on the road.

Key Players

• Yang Lin has done a great job at Shanghai since taking charge in June 2023, forging a pragmatic, transition-based team that set up with a compact defensive block and create havoc on the break.
• They are a physical side with a target striker and they get numbers forward quickly.
• They have scored 9 goals in their last 5 at home, but have also conceded 8, so goals look certain at both ends when these two sides meet on Saturday.
• Jianye Liu, taking the helm in December 2025, has instilled a highly disciplined and organized system in the team.
• His side play at a slow tempo but are highly effective at absorbing pressure and hitting on the counter-attack.
• The visitors can play with 3 or 5 at the back, but whichever configuration they choose, they will always look to catch the opposition in transition.
• Key players:
  • Junchen Zhou has been in particularly good form for Shanghai with 3 of their 9 goals in 5 matches coming from his foot.
  • Chongqing have a tall striker and a very good finisher in Landry Dimata, who has scored 3 of their last 6 goals, so the visitors have the capability to get on the scoresheet.

Betting Insights

Prediction

• Shanghai are unbeaten in five and are the form team going into the game, but Chongqing are much better defensively.
• Shanghai's superior firepower should see them through in a high-scoring contest, so we're recommending a home win in this FA Cup 2026 tie.
