Chinese Super League returns to action this weekend as the high-flying Henan Jianye take on Zhejiang International on Sunday.
The visitors sit pretty in fourth in the table and are two points off the summit. They come into this game on the back of a 2-0 defeat to Shandong Luneng.
The hosts are gaining some momentum in the division after picking up back-to-back wins over Guangzhou and Shandong.

Zhejiang International vs Henan Jianye Prediction
The visitors will look to get back to winning ways and stay in touch with the pace-setters of the division. The defeat to Shandong was their first of the season and with Zhejiang being their next opponent, they have a perfect opportunity to get back in form.
The hosts are toiling in mid-table at this point of time. They are yet to show signs of consistency to break into the upper echelons of the division. Henan will visit as a formidable opponent in Sunday's clash and will have to be at their best to glean any positives out of this game.
We expect the visitors to get a victory in this fixture.
Prediction: Zhejiang 1-3 Henan Jianye
