Full Analysis
Qingdao Guzhenkou University City Sports Center plays host to Qingdao Youth Island versus Dalian Zhixing in Super League, Regular Season - 27. Kick-off: Sunday 11 October 2026 at 10:00 UTC.
Form
Qingdao Youth Island (all games): 5W 4D 1L across 10 Super League fixtures this term — 1.90 PPG. Last five: W D D W D. They are averaging 1.20 goals per game and conceding 0.70 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. Defensively, conceding just 0.70 per game is an exceptional defensive record — one of the tightest in the division. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches. This season is still relatively young for Qingdao Youth Island, so this record blends games from this season and last.
At home at Qingdao Guzhenkou University City Sports Center, Qingdao Youth Island have gone 4W 6D 0L this season (10 games, 1.80 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.50 goals scored and 0.80 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 70% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.
Dalian Zhixing's overall Super League record this term: 4W 3D 3L from 10 games (1.50 PPG). Last five: W L D W D. They are scoring at 1.50 per game and conceding 1.60. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 80% of their matches this season — one of the stronger BTTS rates in the division, making Yes a well-evidenced play. This season is still relatively young for Dalian Zhixing, so this record blends games from this season and last.
When travelling in Super League this season, Dalian Zhixing have posted 2W 3D 5L from 10 away outings — 0.90 PPG. Away from home they average 0.90 goals scored and 1.60 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context. Their away PPG of 0.90 is notably below their overall 1.50 — form away from home has been a clear weakness this season.
A near-identical PPG reading — 1.90 for Qingdao Youth Island, 1.50 for Dalian Zhixing — means the form record is uninstructive on result selection. The goals and market sections will carry greater evidential weight.
In terms of goals, both squads have been finding the net consistently (using home/away splits) — Qingdao Youth Island have seen both teams score in 70% of their games, Dalian Zhixing in 60%. That combined rate is a strong statistical case for BTTS Yes as a standalone play.
Head-to-Head
Historically, Qingdao Youth Island have had the better of this match-up — 3 wins from 3 meetings, with Dalian Zhixing managing just 0 victories and 0 draws shared.
These two sides have produced goals at a consistent rate historically, averaging 3.0 per game across 3 meetings. That scoring profile provides genuine support for the Over 2.5 angle. The most recent clash, on 15 May 2026, ended 3–2 with Qingdao Youth Island winning.
From a betting standpoint, the H2H backs both Qingdao Youth Island and goals. The home side's 3 wins from 3 meetings, combined with an average of 3.0 goals per game, gives the home win and Over 2.5 combination a historically grounded case.
Trading & In-Play
Qingdao Youth Island — key trading statistics (55 games, 28 at home): they score before half-time in 68% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 56% of the time; BTTS occurs in 57% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 39% of games (home games).
Dalian Zhixing — key trading statistics (55 games, 28 at away): they score before half-time in 86% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 91% of the time; BTTS occurs in 64% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 50% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Qingdao Youth Island 58% versus Dalian Zhixing 51%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Qingdao Youth Island 44% | Dalian Zhixing 44%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Qingdao Youth Island 1.50 xG and Dalian Zhixing 0.77 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: Qingdao Youth Island attack 0.871 / defence 0.644 | Dalian Zhixing attack 0.848 / defence 1.008. League average goals — home 1.713 / away 1.404. Qingdao Youth Island's defence rating of 0.644 is below average — the home backline is amplifying the visitor's projected output. Data: 55 Qingdao Youth Island games / 55 Dalian Zhixing games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Qingdao Youth Island 54% | Draw 27% | Dalian Zhixing 19%. Fair-value odds: Qingdao Youth Island 1.85 | Draw 3.70 | Dalian Zhixing 5.26. Qingdao Youth Island hold a narrow Poisson edge at 54% — the draw (27%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 40% | BTTS probability 42% | Total xG 2.27. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 60% — total xG of 2.27 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 42% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Final Verdict
Poisson rates Qingdao Youth Island as the most likely outcome at 54% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 27% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Qingdao Youth Island if the outright odds are short.
Poisson projects 2.27 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 40% probability — Poisson-only — limited corroboration conviction — though H2H averaging only 3.0 goals per meeting points in the other direction.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 42% on No. This conflicts with form data: Qingdao Youth Island 70% | Dalian Zhixing 60% from recent games — a notable divergence.
