Over 2.5 Goals
The first Meizhou Hakka vs Cangzhou Mighty Lions prediction is on the total match goals and we are tipping over 2.5 goals in this CSL matchup. Both teams are in terrible form and have been defensively awful. Noting that the hosts conceded at least 2 goals in four of their last five matches while Cangzhou leaked at least two goals in two of the last five, with no team bagging a clean sheet in that period, this is likely to be a high-scoring encounter.
Both Teams to Score
Another Meizhou Hakka vs Cangzhou Mighty Lions prediction is on the team to score. We have settled on both teams to score as another outcome to expect in this matchup. Despite the worrying run of form, Meizhou Hakka only failed to score in two of their last five while Cangzhou could not score in only one of their last five league games. With that, the probability of Meizhou Hakka vs Cangzhou Mighty Lions yielding goals on both ends of the pitch is high.

Meizhou Hakka vs Cangzhou Mighty Lions Preview: Lineups, Team Information and Form
Meizhou Hakka
It is a worrying run of form for Meizhou Hakka after losing four of their last five league matches and bagging only a point in that period. The hosting coach, Milan Ristic from Serbia, has done quite an impressive job at the helm as he currently averages 1.64 points in 81 games since taking over in the January of 2021. The hosts are 4th-last overall at position 13 and have the second-worst home record ahead of this clash with Cangzhou Mighty Lions.
Possible lineup: Yuelei Cheng, Weihui Rao, Rade Dugalic, Ximig Pan, Tze-Nam Yue, Liang Shi, Nebojsa Kosovic, Chaosheng Yang, Chugui Ye, and Yihu Yang.
Cangzhou Mighty Lions
Cangzhou Mighty Lions are 12th overall. The visiting team are currently ranked 11th in away performance, which is quite modest. However, with only 6 goals scored and 10 leaked in 5 away matches they have played so far, the visitors are more likely to concede goals in this trip than they will score.
Possible lineup: Puliang Shao, Sun Qinhan, Peng Wang, Kaimu Zheng, Yang Liu, Honglue, Osca Taty Maritu, Georgy Zhukov Mile Skoric, Xuchen Yao, and Jurgen Locadia.
