Reeling clubs Henan Jianye FC (8-10-4, 28 points) and Hebei China Fortune FC (10-7-5, 35 points) are set to face each other in a 2016 Chinese Super League match at the Zhengzhou Hanghai Stadium on Sunday, August 21.

The two teams had been struggling in the past few weeks of China top flight performances and both will certainly take advantage of this opportunity to put a halt to each one's current winless spells.

Henan Jianye is on a three-game losing skid and have lost five of their last six games to drop them to the ninth spot of the Chinese first division table after settling as high as fifth place in the overall standings during the first half of the season.

The Red Devils are coming off a 0-3 thrashing in the hands of lowly squad Hangzhou Greentown at the Yellow Dragon Sports Center last Saturday, via Soccerway.

Henan defender Lu Yao's own goal in the 31st minute started the miseries of head coach Jia Xiuquan's side. It was further compounded by two goals in the second half by Hangzhou imports Denilson Gabionetta and Anselmo Ramon to complete the hosts' three-goal haul.

Meanwhile, Hebei is also in a slump, being winless in seven of their last eight assignments including a five-game losing slide.

The Samba Kings went from the second spot in the league table to its current fifth position. They are now three points behind third-running team Shanghai SIPG, who temporarily holds the third and final AFC Champions League berth for next season.

Hebei was held to a 0-0 draw by Liaoning Whowin in their most recent fixture held at their own home field of Qinhuangdao Olympic Sports Center Stadium, as per SkySports.

The predicted result is a 1-0 win for Hebei China Fortune.

Henan Jianye starting lineup (5-3-2 formation): Wu; Yang, McGowan, Samardzic, Gu, Lu; Zhong, Long, Yin; Ivo, Sow

Hebei China Fortune starting lineup (4-2-3-1 formation): Yang; Liao, Du, Gulum, Ding; Gao, M'Bia; Aloisio, Li, Gervinho; Dong
