In the midfield, it is a big loss for Luneng's midfield control as the main back Sun Junho participated in the World Cup. In the absence of Sun Jungho, Hao Wei is expected to play ace foreigner Jadson at fullback, forming a double back with Fellaini. Beside them, Moises is expected to sit in the center axis leading the attack up front, feeding the cake with passes for the forward line.
In the forward line, striker Cressan naturally charges up front for Luneng; the trident combination partnering Cressan should be local young talents Chen Pu and Liu Binbin.
The final projected starting lineup for Luneng against Cangzhou Lions is:Wang Dalei; Song Long, Zheng Zheng, Shi Ke, Li Longhai; Jadason, Fellaini, Moises; Chen Pu, Cressan, Liu Binbin
