The Guangzhou Evergrande manager F. Cannavaro attacks this game with the team placed 1st so far. In the visitors dressing room Shandong Luneng and their manager X. Li are in 4th place before this match.
The visiting Shandong Luneng played their last game only four days ago, a Super League match.
These teams have little in common geographically as Shandong Luneng have to travel 1800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
