Shanghai Seaport has been very impressive in the Chinese Super League this season, with 21 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss after 25 rounds, and 66 points, ranking them at the top of the table. With 5 rounds left, they will have to fight hard in every game to win the Super League title, and this game against Changchun Yatai will be no exception. In terms of strength and past encounters, Shanghai Seaport has a big advantage, winning 5 of their last 6 meetings.
Here's a prediction of the Shanghai Seaport starting lineup:
The goalkeeper is Yan Junling, who is stable and can pounce on the ball, which is important. The backline could be Li Shuai, Wei Zhen, Jiang Guangtai, and Wang Shenchao.
Wei Zhen and Jiang Guangtai play center back, good coordination and strong defense. Li Shuai and Wang Shenchao play as wing backs, fast and able to return to defense. Zhang Linpeng is out injured.
In the midfield Mateusz Ruiza and Leo Cittadini, two Brazilians, play at the back and are responsible for interceptions. Oscar organizes the attack up front.
Up front Gustavo charges, with Wu Lei and Feng Jin as wingers next to him, and they both attack well. Vargas rotates on the bench.
Expected to start are Yan Junling, Li Shuai, Wei Zhen, Jiang Guangtai, Stanley Wang, Mateusz Ruiza, Leo Chitardini, Oscar, Wu Lei, Feng Jin, Gustavo.
