Examining the layout of the schedule, Dalian Yingbo will face strong opponents such as Chongqing Tongliang Dragon, Wuxi Wu Hook and Yunnan Yukun in turn before the half-time battle, while challenging Nanjing and Shanghai Jiading Huilong on the road. In these five matches, two strong teams will be among the top three, while the city of Nanjing should not be underestimated. After five rounds of play, Dalian Yingbo's season will be finalized.
Looking at the player lineup, Dalian Yingbo will face an unfavorable situation. Goalkeeper Sui Weijie will return to action in Round 14 against Yunnan Yukun after serving a four-match suspension. Embalo is expected to return in Round 15, but will have to endure an additional four-game suspension and a red card. Kotelnik is suspended for six games and will only return in Round 16. Wang Xuanhong has accumulated 12 rounds of suspension due to ten games and a red card, so his return is far away.
Injuries are also not optimistic, Wang Tengda is almost out for the season, Fu Yuncheng has not recovered from his long term injury, and Zhang Hongjiang has not appeared on the roster recently and is suspected to be injured. Even if Fei Yu is about to recover, the team only has 23 players available, which is undoubtedly a serious challenge for the team. In the match against Jiangxi, coach Mr. Li has started to focus on developing young players, which is also a layout for the future league.
The next five rounds are like a life and death battle for Dalian Yingbo. If you can play well and keep up with your opponents, you may be able to surpass them. If they don't perform well, catching up with the top five in the second half of the season will become extremely difficult. As a second-tier team, their ultimate goal is to make an impact on the top league. As a city with a huge fan base, their dream is to have a Chinese Super League team. To this end, they are fighting tirelessly!
