Home form to see Three Towns through
Romanian forward Alexandru Tudorie has the best chance of anyone for Wuhan Three Towns of causing the opposition defender problems with his lethal finishing.
He is the top scorer at the club with eight league goals in 14 appearances and has bagged three in their last five Super League outings.
He will get more service in this fixture than most because Qingdao West Coast are a deep-lying side with a safety-first approach.
Abdul-Aziz Yakubu is their most prolific forward with six goals in 16 games and could be a difference-maker in this clash. For those considering Wuhan Three Towns vs Qingdao West Coast FC prediction, Yakubu's contributions are a key factor to watch.
Jiayi Shao took over the reigns last July and has been able to add some structure and discipline to Qingdao West Coast’s play.
His team will look to make it tough for the opponents and steal chances on the break, which is something to consider in Wuhan Three Towns vs Qingdao West Coast FC betting tips.
It works at home, as the 1-0 win over rivals Qingdao Hainiu proves, but on the road they still struggle as the 1-0 away loss to Changchun Yatai shows.
Best value lies in under 2.5 goals
The bookmakers have Three Towns as the favorites at 2.17, West Coast are 3.28 and the draw is 3.62. The Wuhan Three Towns vs Qingdao West Coast FC odds show that the favourites are just too low given Wuhan Three Towns have only one win in their last three meetings and both sides have won 2, drawn 1 and lost 2 of their last 5 games.
With the way these two teams play, there is an obvious attraction to the under 2.5 total goals market for those that are looking for an alternative. Qingdao West Coast have scored just seven goals in their seven away league fixtures and have lost four of those, but Wuhan have conceded 16 times in eight home Super League matches, so there is some vulnerability in their defence.
A narrow home win is the most likely outcome, but the margins are so close that a Wuhan Three Towns vs Qingdao West Coast FC prediction cannot confidently rule out a draw.
