At the same time, the Central League One powerhouse Nanjing and Chengdu Rongcheng were engaged in a fierce competition. Nanjing, as the only Central League One team in the top eight, will undoubtedly be the spoiler in the tournament, bringing great pressure to Chengdu Rongcheng. They were undaunted by their barefoot opponents, and although it was difficult to win, it was reasonable for them to lose. Thankfully, Shandong Taishan and Guoan are temporarily behind the top three teams in the league, saving Chengdu Rongcheng from an intense double fixture schedule. 19:35 on August 22nd, Shanghai Shenhua will host Beijing Guoan. ! [Match Photos](https://www.ballti.com/UploadFiles/Sinaimg/202408/2024080101255393015362021.jpg) The match will be the second derby match between Beijing and Shanghai in August. Looking back to the 21st round of the Chinese Super League (CSL) on August 4, Guoan and Shenhua already had a fierce battle, and 17 days later, the two teams met again. With Shenhua's Manafa seriously injured and only four foreigners left in the FA Cup, there is still some doubt as to whether the Guoan manager can lead his team into the quarter-finals, depending on the performance of the Chinese Super League and Shenhua's team. Shanghai Shenhua will go all out for the Super League title this year, while the match between Tianjin Jinmen Tigers and Shanghai Port will be staged on the same day. Four matches in two days will decide the final four, with the winners of the first and second halves going head-to-head. ! [Match Photos](https://www.ballti.com/UploadFiles/Sinaimg/202408/2024080101255531870362021.jpg) Jinmen Tigers have been quite lucky this season. In the last round of the AFC Cup, they were halfway through the competition, but a draw plus a penalty shootout victory made Yu Genwei ecstatic. Despite the recent poor results, the competition for the AFC Cup has become an important goal for the team this year. Taishan's players such as Zeca, Cressan and Li Yuan are the key to winning the cup. Chengdu Rongcheng has only three foreigners left and they are expected to be Felipe, Romulo and Palacios. Guoan will field their starting lineup, while Shanghai Shenhua will need to make adjustments based on player injuries. The winner of the AFC Cup will directly qualify for next season's AFC Champions League, a spot that is extremely valuable to all teams.
