Competition: Yi League

Market: Over 1.5 goals

Odds: 2/5 @ Pribet

Looking to extend on their recent Yi League purple patch, a high-flying Hangzhou Linping will travel to Hubei Istar on Tuesday lunchtime.

Starting with the hosts, spending the whole of last season scrapping it out at the foot of the Yi League table, Hubei Istar appear destined for a similar rut this time around. Once again showing a string of issues since opening up the 2025 campaign, Goa Feng’s men are desperately seeking some kind of boost. Getting proceedings underway with a 3-1 defeat at home against Changchun Xidu, the Reds have also collected just a single point from their previous five consecutive appearances. With their nightmare struggle underlined by a 5-1 drumming at the hands of Shanxi Chongde Rongchai on June 15th, Hubei have also shown some glaring defensive struggles. Including an action-packed 3-2 loss against Lanzhou in their last appearance on home soil, Tuesday’s hosts have already shipped 24 Yi League strikes so far this season. It should also be highlighted, Feng’s camp have conceded 13 strikes on their five-match winless rut.

As for the visitors, while Hubei might find themselves at the heart of a real Yi League struggle, Hangzhou are enjoying what has become quite the purple patch. Despite signing off May with a 3-1 defeat against Lanzhou, Liu Junwei’s men have come roaring back in some style. Skyrocketing their way up the table and now sat within striking distance of the promotion spots, the Zheijang-based outfit have won all of their previous four consecutive appearances. With their eye-catching flurry underlined by a frantic 3-2 victory against Beijing on June 15th, Tuesday’s guests certainly find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high. Likewise, putting 15 points on the board from their last six straight Yi League outings, Junwei’s camp will also be excited by their recent success on the road. In fact, Hangzhou have recorded back-to-back away victories for the first time this season and they will be smelling a potential opportunity here.

Bet: Over 1.5 goals at Hubei Istar vs Hangzhou Linping 2/5 for Tuesday’s Yi League matchup @ Pribet
