Over the past four years, Shandong Taishan has been a side accustomed to finishing inside the top three. Taishan Dui clinched their league first league trophy in 11 years and fifth overall in the 2021 season before settling for second place in the following two years. This season, however, they have fallen short of the required standards as they are about to finish outside the top three for the first time since 2019.
Considering that the league trophy is now a lot cause to them, Kang-hee Choi still harbours hope that his side can redeem themselves by at least aiming for the Chinese FA Cup, a trophy they have won a record eight times. Last season, they finished as runners up to Shanghai Shenhua, ending a three year dominance. This season, they have made promising strides to avenge themselves, booking their spot in the semi-finals by defeating Henan FC 3-1 at home before the international break.
With 37 points on board from 24 matches, Shandong Taishan occupies 5th place in the Chinese Super League standings and is a massive 24 points behind the top spot occupied by last season's Champions Shanghai Port FC.
Qingdao West Coast
Form: WDDLD
Qingdao West Coast made history by earning promotion to their first ever club appearance in the Chinese Super League this season. Now, their primary goal is to avoid immediate relegation to the second tier, a task that will be hard to achieve considering they are located in the bottom two of the table.
The Qingdao-based side made sure to get their ducks in a row before the international break by defeating Nantong Zhiyun FC 3-0 at the Rugao Olympic Stadium. Despite this extending their unbeaten run to three matches in the league (D2, W1), they still find themselves lacking confidence with just two wins in their last ten matches in all comeptitions (L5, D3).
With 22 points on board from 24 matches, they occupy 15th place within the relegation zone and are one point adrift of safety. They have maintained a seven point cushion over rock bottom side Nantong Zhiyun FC in 16th place.
