Wuhan Three Towns

Form: DDDWW

While Wuhan Three Towns were expected to get back to winning ways in their recent match against Shanghai Shenhua on the road, they couldn't live up to those expectations as their efforts in that match would only see them record yet another unfavorable result, which saw them rescue a point in a 1:1 draw.

Prior to that, in their match against Henan FC on the road, it was another case of rescuing a point as they played out a 1:1 draw thanks to a goal by on loan from Primeira Liga club Rio Ave Abdul-Aziz Yakubu in the second half stoppage time.

An unsatisfactory performance from Pedro Morilla's men has seen them without a win in their last three games, where consecutive draws were recorded to accumulate three points. Though they have not suffered a loss in their last five matches, there's no erasing the fact that they've struggled to grasp wins, and a more iproved showing from them will undoubtedly be required moving forward.

In the standings, they presently occupy 6th place with 10 points level with Beijing Guoan FC in 11th place and are three points behind an AFC Champions League qualifier spot, which is currently occupied by Chengdu Rongcheng FC in third place.

Chengdu Rongcheng FC

Form: DDWWD

Chengdu Rongcheng FC failed to justify the role of favorites in their recent match at home against Changchun Yatai FC, as they were held to a thrilling 2:2 draw to share the spoils at the conclusion of the game.

Prior to that, they performed decently in their match against Shandong Taishan at home but were rather unfortunate not to have bagged all three points as they squandered their one-goal lead in the second half stoppage time to hold on to a 2:2 draw.

Seo Jung-won's men have yet to suffer defeat in their last seven matches in the Super League, where three wins and four draws have been recorded, which has seen them in consistent form, and it goes without saying they'll be on the lookout to extend their unbeaten run to eight games.

In the standings, they currently occupy 3rd place with 13 points, level on points with Tianjin Teda in 4th place, making them four points behind a first-place finish.
