As the night draws to a close, a marquee match is set to take place in the Chinese Super League (CSL) on March 1 at exactly 20:00 hours. Reigning champions Shanghai Seaport will welcome 2022 champions Wuhan Sanzhen under their own roof, in a match that will be simulcast live on CCTV5.

Shanghai seaport versus the three towns of Wuhan, with the following focus:

One: lineup showdown! The new season of the Chinese Super League has arrived as promised. Both teams have recruited and brought in five strong foreign reinforcements. Shanghai Seaport's foreign aid is worth 17.8 million euros, while Wuhan Sanzhen's foreign aid combination is worth 8.66 million euros. Seaport's foreign aid strength is not bad, the domestic players are potential stocks, they are eager to create new glory in the new season; Wuhan three town due to financial pressure, had to sell Wei Shihao, Xie Pengfei, Yan Dinghao and other domestic strength players, but this is undoubtedly the club has no choice, after all, the team harmony is the first.

Two: Can the home side open the season? Shanghai Seaport has a strong squad, while Wuhan Sanzhen has a weakened squad. Coupled with the advantage of home field, Shanghai Seaport, as the defending champions, will surely be eager to beat their opponents in their debut to start the season on a good note. I firmly believe that with the home field advantage and Wu Lei's steady play, Seaport will be able to beat Sanzhen. As long as Oscar is in the lineup, Seaport's chances of winning the title are greatly increased. In this match, the performance of the new recruits of both sides and the tactical game between new coaches Kevin Muscat and Ricardo Rodriguez will be the key points to watch, and it will be worthwhile to see who is more skillful!

The game will be officiated by Fu Ming.

The two teams have faced each other in the history of the Chinese Super League, with two wins and two losses in four matches, making it difficult to distinguish between them. Both sides achieved a double over each other in their respective championship seasons.

Injuries on both sides: none.
