At 7:30 p.m. Beijing time on October 4, the 21st round of the 2022 season of the Chinese Super League will kick off, and Zhejiang Football Club will face the powerful Wuhan Sanzhen team at the Huzhou Olympic Sports Center.
[Zhejiang team's recent situation]
In the last round of the tournament, Zhejiang accumulated 29 points with 7 wins, 8 draws and 3 losses, and is currently in the seventh place of the table. Since the 8th round of 0-1 defeat against Henan Songshan Longmen, Zhejiang has been undefeated for 10 consecutive rounds, which is also the longest undefeated record in the Chinese Super League this season. Facing the upcoming Wuhan Sanzhen, whether Zhejiang can continue to remain undefeated will undoubtedly become the focus of the game.
However, due to the postponement of two rounds of matches after the battle with Meizhou Hakka on the 14th of last month due to the impact of the epidemic, the Zhejiang team has not participated in official matches for up to 20 days, which makes the team's competitive status a big unknown. In addition, the game will be played in an empty stadium, which also weakens Zhejiang's home field advantage.
[Situation of the Wuhan Three Towns team]
In the last round of matches, Wuhan Sanzhen, the leading team in the table, unexpectedly lost 3-4 to Cangzhou Lions, and their undefeated season was broken. The loss narrowed Sanzhen's lead in the Chinese Super League standings to four points and gave Shandong Luneng hope for the title. Currently, Sanzhen has 47 points with 15 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, leading the Chinese Super League table.
In the face of last round's loss, manager Pedro will definitely go all out and send his strongest team to the game. However, it should be noted that core player Stanciuin is unable to play in this match as he finished the UEFA Europa League tournament for the Romanian national team, while Edmilson, Wallace and Malcolm are all suffering from injuries and their availability is still doubtful. The only certainty is that foreign aid Davidson will play, local players, Liu Yiming has resumed training, the last round due to avoidance clause can not play Xie Pengfei is expected to come back.
