✍️ Match Preview
Pre-Match Analysis
Tianjin Teda and Shenzhen Ruby FC meet at TEDA Football Stadium in Super League, Regular Season - 18. This fixture gets under way on Friday 21 July 2023 at 12:35 UTC.
Form & Momentum
Tianjin Teda have collected 1.50 PPG across 10 Super League outings this season: 3W 6D 1L. Last five: W W D D L. They are averaging 1.40 goals per game and conceding 1.20 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 80% of their matches — an extremely high rate that makes BTTS Yes a well-supported standalone angle from their form alone. This season is still relatively young for Tianjin Teda, so this record blends games from this season and last.
In front of their own supporters this season, Tianjin Teda have posted 3W 6D 1L at TEDA Football Stadium — 1.50 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.30 goals scored and 1.30 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.
Shenzhen Ruby FC's overall Super League record this term: 1W 1D 8L from 10 games (0.40 PPG). Last five: L L L L L. Their scoring rate of 0.70 per game is modest, conceding 3.30 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Conceding 3.30 per game is a high rate — their defensive vulnerabilities have been exposed regularly this season. This season is still relatively young for Shenzhen Ruby FC, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Shenzhen Ruby FC's form when playing away from home: 0W 1D 9L across 10 road games this term (0.10 PPG). Away from home they average 0.40 goals scored and 3.60 conceded per game. Away from home, both teams have scored in only 30% of games — a low rate that backs BTTS No when they travel.
Form favours the hosts. Tianjin Teda's 1.50 PPG return is 1.10 points per game ahead of Shenzhen Ruby FC's 0.40 — a genuine gap in recent results that provides a statistically grounded case for backing the home side.
Head-to-Head
Neither side has dominated this fixture. The last 3 head-to-head meetings have produced 2 wins for Tianjin Teda, 1 for Shenzhen Ruby FC and 0 draws — an even split that leaves the H2H largely neutral as a betting input.
Attacking output has been a hallmark of this fixture. At 3.3 goals per game across 3 meetings, the Over 2.5 has a statistically grounded case from the head-to-head record alone. The most recent clash, on 26 Apr 2023, ended 2–0 with Tianjin Teda winning.
With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H-derived signal is in the goals market. At 3.3 goals per game historically, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle to extract from the head-to-head data.
Trading & In-Play
Tianjin Teda — key trading statistics (50 games, 23 at home): they score before half-time in 54% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 76% of the time; BTTS occurs in 52% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 48% of games (home games).
Shenzhen Ruby FC — key trading statistics (50 games, 23 at away): they score before half-time in 78% of fixtures 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; BTTS occurs in 48% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 65% of games (away games); they fail to score in 44% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Tianjin Teda 54% versus Shenzhen Ruby FC 48%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Tianjin Teda 42% | Shenzhen Ruby FC 64%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Tianjin Teda 2.69 xG and Shenzhen Ruby FC 0.80 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: Tianjin Teda attack 1.049 / defence 0.993 | Shenzhen Ruby FC attack 0.670 / defence 1.727. League average goals — home 1.486 / away 1.204. Shenzhen Ruby FC bring a strong defensive rating of 1.727 — this is suppressing Tianjin Teda's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 50 Tianjin Teda games / 50 Shenzhen Ruby FC games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Tianjin Teda 76% | Draw 16% | Shenzhen Ruby FC 7%. Fair-value odds: Tianjin Teda 1.32 | Draw 6.25 | Shenzhen Ruby FC 14.29. The model has a clear lean to Tianjin Teda (76%) — a 69pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 68% | BTTS probability 53% | Total xG 3.49. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 68% — a total xG of 3.49 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS probability of 53% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Tianjin Teda at 76% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support.
On the goals line, Poisson's 3.49 combined xG gives a 68% probability to Over 2.5 — strong, supported by form averaging 3.3 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.3 goals per meeting.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 53%. Form rates are neutral: Tianjin Teda 70% | Shenzhen Ruby FC 30%.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
The points were shared at TEDA Football Stadium, Regular Season - 18, as Tianjin Teda and Shenzhen Ruby FC drew 3-3 in the Super League. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Tianjin Teda 2.69 xG and Shenzhen Ruby FC 0.80 xG, a combined 3.49. The scoreboard read 3-3 for 6 actual goals. Shenzhen Ruby FC outscored their 0.80 projection by 2.2. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Tianjin Teda attack 1.05 / defence 0.99 against Shenzhen Ruby FC attack 0.67 / defence 1.73, drawn from 50/50 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Tianjin Teda 76% | Draw 16% | Shenzhen Ruby FC 7%, with Tianjin Teda to win its most likely call at 76%. Instead the game produced a draw, an outcome the model had rated at just 16% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 68%. The game delivered 6, so it went over — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 87% and landed. Over 3.5 was 46% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 53% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 53% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Tianjin Teda 42%, Shenzhen Ruby FC 64%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 51%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Tianjin Teda's trading profile (50 games, 23 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 54% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 32% of the time, and conceded here.
Shenzhen Ruby FC's trading profile (50 games, 23 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 48% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result
On form, Tianjin Teda arrived the stronger side — 1.54 PPG against 0.82. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win. Tianjin Teda (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 1.43 average — above their attacking norm and shipped 3 against a 1.00 concession average — a leakier day than usual. Shenzhen Ruby FC (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 0.87 average — above their attacking norm.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit), form (miss). Partial vindication: some calls landed, others slipped.
