The Guangzhou team of the "Urban Assassins", in a fierce battle with Meizhou Hakka at the Huadu Stadium, is looking forward to an unstoppable victory on the night of the 9th under the banner of Coach Zheng Zhi!
Although Guangzhou failed to win and score, the result of bringing back a point on the road was a welcome one. Although the team is still lacking in passing accuracy and taking chances on goal, the coaching staff is working hard to make adjustments. In the limited time available, if the problems remain unsolved, the team may need to change its strategy, such as strengthening its set-piece offense and long-distance shooting attempts, in order to make a tactical breakthrough.
In terms of player configuration, the return of veteran Huang Bowen will continue the team's trend, and Zhang Chenglin and others are expected to get more playing opportunities. As for Coach Zheng Zhi, it has not yet been determined whether he will play or not. The injury situation will have to wait for the players to fully recover before they can return.
In comparison, Meizhou Hakka is currently ranked 8th in the league, with a 9-point gap to third-place Shenhua, which is in the middle of the table. In the last three rounds of matches, Meizhou Hakka drew 1 and lost 2, a slight decline in the situation, but it should be noted that these opponents are ranked higher than Meizhou Hakka.
Meizhou Hakka's attacking power is not to be underestimated, ranking third in the league with 29 goals, with four foreigners scoring a total of 18 goals and firing on all cylinders. Center forward Vukanovic and center back Dugalić dominate in handling aerial balls with their height advantage, while winger Rodrigo and Montenegrin international Kosovic are the core of the team's midfield. Guangzhou will have to keep a close eye on these key players. The defense will need to remain stable, keep the goal intact and look for counter-attacking opportunities on the basis of this.
Predicted Result: Guangzhou's undefeated team can be expected.
