Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Shanghai SIPG & Suzhou Dongwu face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the FA Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!

Shanghai SIPG have less rest than Suzhou Dongwu in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Super League game only four days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Meizhou Hakka.
