Chengdu Rongcheng Xinpengcheng, the away team known as the "Netflix Team", is about to face off against Shenzhen Xinpengcheng, renamed after the former Sichuan Jiuniu, in a battle between Rongcheng Xinpengcheng and Chengdu Rongcheng Xinpengcheng.
This alternative derby will be simulcast live in Sichuan by Chengdu Radio and Television Public Channel. Chengdu Rongcheng Xinpengcheng boasts an international line-up, including Brazilian naturalized player Eckerson and Po Dao mixed-race player Zhou Dingyang. Together with foreigners such as Felipe, Palacios and Romulo, they are as strong as seven prospective foreigners. However, Wei Shihao, who was suspended for a violent foul, has forced the team to be picked up by local players such as Yan Dinghao, Tang Miao and Dan Dan. Chengdu Rongcheng Xinpengcheng won two consecutive matches in the Chinese Super League and went undefeated for nine rounds to secure third place in the table with 48 points. Shenzhen Xinpengcheng, on the other hand, is led by Andrade, Dai Weijun and An Yongjia, and is regarded as the Crow of Hong Kong, China, and is currently in 10th place with 24 points. Sichuan Chengdu's fans are known for creating chaos on the road, so security should not be overlooked tonight.
Meanwhile, Shandong Taishan will challenge Cangzhou Lions on the road, and the match will be broadcast live on Shandong Radio and TV Sports and Leisure Channel. Shandong Taishan has strong reinforcements such as Kressan and Kazayishvili, plus many national team stars such as Wang Dalei, Gao Junyi and Wu Xinghan. However, the team has recently lost two consecutive games and is currently ranked fifth in the league with 34 points. The team's coach, Choi Kang-hee, is returning to lead the team's comeback. On the other hand, Cangzhou Lions, coached by Li Xiaopeng and led by Ewell, Oscar and Shao Lianliang, are in danger of relegation after their dismal performance in 16 rounds of matches and currently ranked in the bottom three with 18 points.
Who will have the last laugh in tonight's three Super League matches? Let's wait and see!
