The season is still fairly new and the Super League table has to be read with caution. So far Shenzhen find themselves in 3rd position and Shandong Luneng are placed 1st.
- Shenzhen have the most scored goals in the first half (4) in Super League
- Shandong Luneng have the fewest conceded goals (1) in Super League
Shenzhen and Shandong Luneng should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
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.
