After four fierce battles, the Nanjing City soccer team is about to embark on the road to the showdown. The injection of fresh blood such as Jiang Zhe and Zhang Tianlong has undoubtedly added new vitality to the team. Looking back at the first three matches against their rivals, Nanjing City first shook hands with Qingdao West Coast 1-1 on the road, then won 2-1 against Jinan Xingzhou on the road, then drew 0-0 with Guangxi Pingguo, and finally defended their undefeated status with 1 win and 2 draws. If the team can continue to remain undefeated or even win on the road against Sichuan Jiuniu, the team's hope for the Super League will become more and more remote.
Guangxi Pingguo Hanyin, as the league leader, is about to face Suzhou Dongwu with full Chinese class after two consecutive losses. This is definitely a "first and last conversation", as Guangxi Pingguo, who seemingly has a huge difference in strength, has brought in foreign aid Evolo during the summer transfer period, which has greatly increased their strength. However, Suzhou Dongwu, after two seasons of sharpening, the full Chinese class lineup is also quite powerful. The fact that they were able to draw with favorites such as Qingdao West Coast and Nanjing is the best proof of this. In this round of challenges, Suzhou Dongwu naturally will not give up easily.
Shijiazhuang Kung Fu, after four consecutive victories, hosted promotion rival Dandong Tengyue in this round. New coach Zhou Lin and his disciples were aiming for three points and a fifth consecutive win. Dandong Tengyue has also shown a strong fighting spirit and proved their strength by beating Jinan Xingzhou 1-0 on the road in the last round. Therefore, it will not be easy for Shijiazhuang Kung Fu to win easily.
Qingdao West Coast, undefeated for three consecutive rounds, is ranked fifth in the table and has been on a downward trend. The team is looking forward to regaining its winning pace when it hosts Guangzhou in this round. New coach Jankovic needs to adjust his lineup, especially with Zhang Xiuwei joining the team, how to maximize his potential is the key.
Guangzhou won their first three consecutive matches of the season after beating Yanbian Longding 2-0 in the previous round. The team is undefeated and morale is high after new coach Salvador took over. They are determined to win this round against Qingdao West Coast.
Heilongjiang Bingcheng's morale was boosted by a 6-2 win over Wuxi Wuhu in the last round. In this round, the team traveled south to challenge the upgraded Dongguan Union, hoping to continue their hot form and get another three points. After beating Guangxi Pingguo Hanyin, Dongguan Union drew with Shanghai Jiading Huilong, which was somewhat regrettable. Facing Heilongjiang Bingcheng in this round, they are also aiming for three points.
Jinan Xingzhou, after welcoming new coach Wei Xin, will challenge Wuxi Wuhu on the road in this round. Coincidentally, Wei Xin has coached Wuxi Wuhu before, and 14 days ago, he was the head coach of Wuxi Wuhu. This matchup is both a new challenge and an old love affair for Wei Xin.
Wuxi Wu Hook is in trouble after Wei Xin took over. New coach Li Yi Nan and assistant coach Xiao Zhanbo are constantly adjusting their lineup. Although the team lost 2-6 to Heilongjiang Bingcheng in the last round, they scored at least two goals, which is a sign of progress.
Shanghai Jiading Huilong, as a team in the relegation zone, has yet to taste victory. They will be looking for their first win again in this round. Yanbian Longding, after defeating Guangzhou in the previous round, moved to Shanghai and are eager to take three points against their lowly opponents.
Liaoning Shenyang City and Jiangxi Lushan went head-to-head this round. Although both sides are not in the relegation zone, they are only 6 points ahead of the relegation zone and are in a tight spot. This 6-point battle is destined to be turbulent.
