Why we like him

Yang Fan's biggest appeal is availability and volume minutes. He has been a regular in Tianjin's Starting XI, with 14 appearances in the last 15 league matches and roughly an 80-minute average per outing, which buys a reliable floor for tackle and clearance counting stats. He brings a little offensive upside too, registering one assist in recent match logs and 0.20 assists per match across the last five games, so there is a reasonable ceiling on set-piece or overlap deliveries if Tianjin gets forward. The matchup at Shandong is messy; Shandong scores and concedes a lot this season, with 36 goals conceded in 20 matches and only two clean sheets, so while Yang's chances of a shutout are capped, the open nature of the game boosts his probability of fantasy production through defensive actions. Sorare Edge pegs him at an 80.6 projection with medium model confidence, which matches his predictable minutes-driven floor and gives upside if the match tilts into a high-event affair.
