Foshan Southern Lions drew 1-1 at home on the second matchday against Guangxi Pingguo Ha Ling Guojing, who remain eight points adrift of the Super League zone. Jiangxi Lushan earned their second win of the season with a 2-1 victory away to Qingdao Red Lions. However, there is still a nine-point gap between them and the relegation zone, making the relegation situation very tough. Shanghai Jiading Huilong drew 0-0 with Heilongjiang Bingcheng on the third matchday.
After this round of matches, there was little change in the standings, with Yunnan Yukun still in first place, six points ahead of Dalian Yibo, and in good shape. Although Dalian Yibo is still struggling to get a win, Guangzhou is still five points ahead. In the next round, the two teams will play a direct match, a six-point battle that will be crucial for both teams. Among the third to sixth-placed teams that have the potential to make a promotion push are Guangzhou, who have accumulated 40 points, Chongqing Tongliang Dragons with 39 points, and Suzhou Dongwu and Guangxi Pingguo Hazhong Guojing, who have also amassed 37 points.
In the 24th round of matches, there will be two focus matches, namely Dalian Yingbo ranked second, Guangzhou team ranked third, Suzhou Dongwu ranked fifth at home and Chongqing Tongliang Dragon ranked fourth. Hopefully, Dalian Yingbo can get three points on the road and win over their opponents!
