🗞️ Team News: Nantong Zhiyun

It’s a low absenteeism rate, with just a single fitness concern for the Nantong Zhiyun gaffer David Patrício to be concerned with thanks to an otherwise robust set of players. Oumar Camara (Sprained ankle) won’t play.

We are thinking that Nantong Zhiyun look set to use a 4-3-3 system for this game, utilising Xiaodong Shi, Yeljan Shinar, Sheng Ma, Matheus Bressan, Huan Liu, Xiangbin Li, Lucas Morelatto, Mingyang Yang, Song Wang, Rubilio Castillo and Romario Balde.

📰 Team News: Shenzhen FC

Due to a fully healthy squad available to select from, the Shenzhen FC boss Chen Tao has no fitness concerns at all ahead of this clash.

We’re of the thinking that Shenzhen FC seem most likely to elect for a 4-3-3 lineup with a starting lineup of Minzhe Wei, Ruifeng Huang, Mincheng Yuan, Boyu Yang, Zhipeng Jiang, Shuai Pei, Yue Xu, Haofeng Xu, Frank Acheampong, Yuezheng Du and Hujahmat Shahsat.

Here is a game where Shenzhen FC might need a bit of good fortune to put one past this Nantong Zhiyun lineup who we reckon will score one, at least.
