Ningbo Rockets have been performing well at home recently, with an undefeated record of three wins and three draws in their last six matches. They average a high 87.8 points per game, with a strong showing of 42.2 points in the first half. Playing at home, they demonstrate excellent offensive and defensive stability, placing them 11th in the rankings with a 50% win rate and a current two-game winning streak. In the first half, Ningbo Rockets have been particularly effective, scoring 45.5 points, effectively controlling the pace of the game. In contrast, Tianjin Pioneers are showing signs of away-game fatigue. They have only won one away game out of six this season, resulting in a low win rate. Their average score is 89.5 points, but they concede 92 points, with a net score of -2.5 points, indicating defensive instability. Although their first-half performance isn't bad, they still need to be cautious when facing a strong home team. Notably, in previous encounters, Ningbo Rockets have often performed well in critical moments, especially at home, where they have significantly improved their offensive organisation and defensive intensity. Tianjin Pioneers, on the other hand, often lack sufficient counter-attack speed and pressure in away games, making it easier for their opponents to widen the gap. In this match, if Ningbo Rockets can maintain their current form, they are expected to leverage their home advantage and control the game.
