Changchun Yatai go on their trip to Shandong Luneng and Jinan Olympic Sports Center Stadium brimming with happy thoughts, but the home team is not a walk in the park. More information on the game here!

Insights:
  • Shandong Luneng have the fewest conceded goals (2) at home in Super League
  • Changchun Yatai have the most scored goals (23) in Super League

These teams have little in common geographically as Changchun Yatai have to travel 1200 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
