An important duel in the bottom section of the League One, with both Shenyang Urban and Sichuan experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 5th and the visitors in 5th place.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Shenyang Urban form and stats
Shenyang Urban have collected 3 points from their League One home games so far after 0-3-2. The Shenyang Urban manager M. Yu might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.
A strong away win for Shenyang against Beijing Renhe the last match, as Muzapar Muhta, I. Tukhtakhujaev and Liu Jun were on target. Preceding that match was the home game against Guizhou Zhicheng that was lost 0-3.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Shenyang as they are travelling to their away game against Beijing BG in the League One. That match is three days after this one.
Shenyang Urban are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 5 goals in 5 games. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Shenyang Urban with 10 goals conceded in these matches.
Sichuan form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their League One travels is 1 win, 4 draws and 0 defeats.
Sichuan are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the League One against Guizhou Zhicheng. Preceding that game was the away victory against Xinjiang Tianshan with the score of 1-0.
The schedule is very tough for Sichuan now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A League One game at Beijing Renhe is waiting in only three days.
Sichuan are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 6 away goals from 5 games (in the league). As opposed to that, Sichuan have seen the ball go into their own net 5 times on the road.
