In the CBA arena, Fujian Jinjiang Wenlv prepares for their fourth encounter of the season against Guangzhou Longtai Haiben. Fujian's recent form has been inconsistent, with a record of two wins and eight losses in their last ten games, representing a 20% win rate. Their offensive rebounding efficiency is low, and their shooting accuracy fluctuates. They often find themselves trailing at halftime, ultimately leading to defeats. For example, in the December 23rd match against Zhejiang Fangxingdu, they led 37-33 at halftime but lost 65-84, exposing defensive weaknesses. Against Zhejiang Chouzhou Jinzu, they lost 79-88, with a total score of only 167 points, significantly below the total score threshold, highlighting offensive struggles. Meanwhile, Guangzhou Longtai Haiben, playing away, has a record of three wins and seven losses in their last ten matches, maintaining a relatively stable pace. Despite significant handicap margins against teams like Guangdong Dongguan and Jiangsu Kendiya, Guangzhou has demonstrated an ability to control games through outside shooting and defensive counterattacks in crucial moments. In their last three games, they have averaged approximately 85 points per game, with several games exceeding the total score expectations, showing a balance in offense and defense. It is worth noting that the coach is adept at adjusting tactics in matchups against inside and fast-paced teams, enhancing transition attack efficiency to compress the defensive space. This matchup, seemingly close in strength, will be a critical test of contrasting styles. Fujian must improve their offensive consistency to avoid being on the defensive again. Guangzhou needs solid defense and coordinated inside-outside play to break their current slump. The game promises to be filled with action. Match: December 26th, 19:35 Fujian Jinjiang Wenlv vs. Guangzhou Longtai Haiben Prediction: Guangzhou Longtai Haiben -5.5, Away Win
