Dalian Pro

Form: LLLWL

Dalian Pro's recent match against Tianjin Teda on the road turned out to be another unfavorable outcome, as they lost 1-0 to drop three points. This comes after their 2-0 win against them in the quarterfinals of the Chinese FA Cup.

Overall, their performance in the league has not inspired much confidence, leading to a lack of motivation. They are currently on a three-match losing streak and have won just one of their five matches to accumulate a meager three points.

Before their 3-0 loss against Henan FC at home, the Blue Hawks were currently on a five-match unbeaten run, picking up three draws and two wins. However, under the veil, their performance at the Dalian Sports Center Stadium revealed poor form, with 6 draws, 3 wins, and 3 draws recorded from 12 matches to accumulate nine points.

They currently occupy 15th place with 18 points in the standings within the relegation zone, six points ahead of 16th-placed Shenzhen FC. Their bid for safety is hindered by a one-point deficit.

Shandong Taishan

Shandong Taishan made the trip to Rizal Memorial Stadium to lock horns with Kaya FC-Iloilo on the first matchday of the AFC Champions League. Taishan Dui displayed their supremacy by winning 3-1 to secure second place in the standings of Group G, level with first-placed Incheon.

Prior to that, Taishan Dui resumed their league action after the international break with a dominant performance against floundering side Qingdao Hainiu, recording a commanding 4-2 triumph at home courtesy of Wenneng Xie's brace and goals from Crysan and Marouane Fellaini.

Since a 1-0 loss to Chengdu Rongcheng at home on August 8th, Kang-hee Choi's men have gone to win four consecutive matches in the league and will be confident in adding a fifth to their portfolio. On the road, they've won three of their nine matches, along with five draws and a loss.

They currently occupy second place with 47 points in the standings and are nine points behind first place.
