Wuhan Three Towns went into the international break with spirits high as they clinched a comfortable 3-1 victory against Nantong Zhiyun FC at the Rugao Olympic Sports Center Stadium, with new signings Pedro Henrique and Darlan having quite a rollercoaster of an evening.

It's a no-brainer that this triumph boosted their confidence, bouncing back from a morale-sapping 3-1 defeat at the hands of Shanghai Port FC in their opening match of the season. Setting foot at the Wuhan Sports Center Stadium for the first time this season, they'll be backing themselves up for their first home victory while extending their winning streak to two matches in the league. 

With three points accumulated from two matches played, Wuhan Three Towns currently sits in eighth place in the Chinese Super League and is three points adrift of first-placed Shanghai Shenhua.

Formation: 4-4-2

The Imperial Guards knew that venturing to the Jinan Olympic Sports Center Stadium to lock horns with the formidable Shandong Taishan was going to be a challenging journey. Despite that, they managed to rise to the occasion and snatch a point in a goalless draw, an outcome deemed favorable in the eyes of Ricardo Soares, although this extended their winless run against Shandong Taishan to eight matches.

In light of this result, the Imperial Guards have extended their unbeaten run in the league to two matches (W1 and D1) and will be aiming to bounce back to winning ways in this match. However, having failed to win any of their last four matches in this fixture, they could be in for another challenging journey away from home.

With four points accumulated from two matches, Beijing Guoan FC currently sits in fifth place in the Chinese Super League and is a mere two points adrift of the zenith.

Formation: 3-4-3
