Analysis & Preview
Dalian Aerbin travel to Chengdu Phoenix Mountain Sports Park to take on Chengdu Better City in Super League (matchday 34). The game is scheduled for Saturday 31 December 2022 at 07:00 UK time.
Form Analysis
Looking at their last 10 matches, Chengdu Better City stand at 7W 3D 0L — 2.40 PPG. Last five: W D D W W. Offensively they are averaging 1.80 goals per game, with 0.70 conceded. Defensively, conceding just 0.70 per game is an exceptional defensive record. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches.
Chengdu Better City's home record over their last 10 home games: 7W 3D 0L (2.40 PPG). They are averaging 2.30 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. 5 clean sheets from their last 10 home games (50%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at home.
Across their last 10 games, Dalian Aerbin have recorded 6W 2D 2L — 2.00 PPG. Last five: W W L L W. They are scoring at 1.90 per game and conceding 1.10. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%). Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
Dalian Aerbin away from home: 5W 1D 4L from their last 10 away games — 1.60 PPG on the road. They are averaging 1.80 goals per away game — strong road scoring that makes them a threat even without home support. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.
There is minimal separation in the form figures — Chengdu Better City at 2.40 PPG versus Dalian Aerbin's 2.00. The form guide is not providing a strong directional steer; the model and market data will carry more weight in the final assessment.
H2H Record
There is little to separate the sides in our head-to-head data. From 3 H2H matches, Chengdu Better City have won 1, Dalian Aerbin 1, with 1 draw — a balanced record that offers no clear steer on its own. With only 3 H2H matches to go on, treat this as a light input.
Goals have been at a premium in this fixture — just 1.7 per game across the 3 H2H matches we hold, giving Under 2.5 a clear head-to-head base rate. The most recent of those, on 9 Oct 2022, ended Chengdu Better City 0–2 Dalian Aerbin — a Dalian Aerbin win.
With a balanced win record and just 1.7 goals per game, the H2H data points toward a tight, low-scoring contest — Under 2.5 is the stronger head-to-head angle regardless of which side wins.
Trading Patterns
Chengdu Better City in-play and half-time data (last 35 games, 17 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 71% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 54% of the time; of the 11 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 27%; of the 12 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 58%; BTTS occurs in 59% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 53% of games (home games); they keep a clean sheet 46% of the time.
Dalian Aerbin in-play and half-time data (last 35 games, 17 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 62% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 89% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 78% of those occasions; of the 12 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 33%; BTTS occurs in 53% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 65% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Chengdu Better City 46% versus Dalian Aerbin 60%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Chengdu Better City 40% | Dalian Aerbin 57%). Note also that Dalian Aerbin surrender HT leads in 33% of cases while Chengdu Better City recover from half-time deficits to draw or win 58% of the time — a dynamic that could influence in-play positioning.
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Chengdu Better City 1.85 xG and Dalian Aerbin 1.07 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Chengdu Better City attack 1.221 / defence 0.709 | Dalian Aerbin attack 1.093 / defence 1.069. League average goals — home 1.419 / away 1.384. Chengdu Better City have a tight defence (rating 0.709), which is pulling Dalian Aerbin's projected output down. Data: built from Chengdu Better City's last 33 games and Dalian Aerbin's last 47.
Result probabilities: Chengdu Better City 55% | Draw 25% | Dalian Aerbin 21%. Fair-value odds: Chengdu Better City 1.83 | Draw 4.05 | Dalian Aerbin 4.82. The model has a clear lean to Chengdu Better City (55%) — a 30pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 56% | BTTS Yes probability 56% | Total xG 2.92. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 56% — the 2.92 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 56% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Our Verdict
Poisson rates Chengdu Better City as the most likely outcome at 55% — clear model lean. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 25% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
Poisson projects 2.92 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 56% probability — mixed conviction, supported by recent form (Chengdu Better City's last 10 home games and Dalian Aerbin's last 10 away games) averaging 3.2 goals per game — though the H2H data averaging only 1.7 goals per game across 3 H2H matches points the other way.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 56%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Chengdu Better City 50% (last 10 home games) | Dalian Aerbin 60% (last 10 away games).
