1. The situation in the standings: racing against time, pressing forward step by step

For Liaoning Iron Man, if you win this game, you can firmly hold on to the top; and if Shijiazhuang Kung Fu can win the game, it can surpass your opponent and enter the Super League strongly.

2. Recent status: Liaoning Iron Man seeks change, Shijiazhuang Kung Fu plays steadily

Liaoning Iron Man has had some ups and downs in recent years. He has encountered three consecutive draws in the last 3 games (League + FA Cup). Although the firepower on the offensive end is still the same, the defensive end is obviously loose, and he has conceded goals in 6 consecutive league rounds. In the last round against Suzhou Dongwu, the team was equalized by the opponent in injury time, and the three-pointer he got turned into one point, and his morale was severely frustrated. Returning to home this time, the team urgently needs a victory to turn the situation around and regain confidence.

Shijiazhuang Kung Fu has won 2 wins and 2 losses in the last 4 games. The team has done a very good defensive end and has conceded only 8 goals in 10 rounds of the league, making it the second-most conceded goalkeeper in the China League One. In the last round of the league, they beat Nanjing City 2:0 at home. Players such as Olavio and Gao Huaze performed well and the team was in good shape. However, the team's performance on the offensive end has slightly fluctuated, and the goal efficiency varies when facing different opponents.

3. Analysis of goals and conceded goals: offensive strong points and defensive hidden dangers coexist

On the offensive, Liaoning Iron Man can be called the "firepower king" of the China League One, with 26 goals in 10 rounds, with offensive efficiency in the league. The offensive trident composed of Mbenza (7 goals), An Yien (5 goals) and Zang Yifeng (6 goals) is amazingly powerful. The core of the midfielder, Uemu Fumio Yoshi led the assist list with 9 assists, and his passing accuracy and creativity continuously delivered "cannonballs" to the front line.

In contrast, Shijiazhuang Kung Fu scored 17 goals in 10 games, ranking fifth in the offensive firepower in the China League One, with Olavio (3 goals), Xu Junchi (2 goals), etc., with a relatively balanced offense, but lacking a dominant scoring point like the Liaoning Iron Man. On the defensive end, Liaoning Iron Man lost 11 goals in 10 rounds, and there are many problems with the defense line. When facing opponents with slightly stronger offensive capabilities, he missed people and made mistakes many times, resulting in conceding goals. Shijiazhuang Kung Fu conceded only 8 goals in 10 games. The defense line built by Yang Yun, Liu Huan and goalkeeper Lin Xiang is very stable and is the foundation for the team to establish itself in the China League One. However, when facing opponents with strong offensive firepower away, the defense line is occasionally broken.

4. Injury situation: Liaoning Iron Man's front line was damaged

Liaoning Iron Man suffered from injuries, and the main striker Mbenza's thigh was strained and has recovered from jogging, but he is likely to be unable to play in this game, which has a great impact on the team's offensive end. Mbenza's impact and ability to grasp the goal are important reliances for the team's offense. His absence means that An Yien needs to shoulder the banner of attack alone. Domestic players such as Zang Yifeng, Gui Zihan, and Zhao Jianbo also need to stand up and share the heavy responsibility of scoring more goals. In terms of Shijiazhuang Kung Fu, there has been no news of the injury of the main player, and the team can play with a relatively complete lineup.

In this duel, Liaoning Iron Man has the advantage of home court, and offensive firepower has the upper hand, but the defensive shortcomings and the potential for injury on the front line are obvious; Shijiazhuang Kung Fu has a stable defense, excellent away game combat capabilities, and resolute tactical execution. If Liaoning Iron Man wants to win, he needs to stabilize the defense, give full play to Bangben Yiyu's organizational and dispatching ability in the midfield, and activate the offensive power of the Trident; Shijiazhuang Kung Fu must make good use of defensive counterattacks, and offensive players such as Olavio seize the opportunity, while limiting Liaoning Iron Man's midfield core. Who can get the lead in this critical battle to advance to the Super League? Let's wait and see the wonderful showdown on the evening of May 31.
