The League One league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. These two teams are placed 16th and 14th respectively.
Heilongjiang Lava Spring could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a FA Cup game only four sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Nanjing Shaye. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary. That match was played in the comfort of their own home stadium, hosting Nanjing Shaye. There's been little rest and some travel, but Heilongjiang Lava Spring will do their best.
