In the last round of matches, Guoan hosted Zhejiang and won 2-0, giving their opponents their first defeat of the season and ending their 3 consecutive draws.

History Wuhan Sanzhen and Beijing Guoan have faced each other 6 times in the past 3 seasons in the Chinese Super League, with Sanzhen getting 3 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, scoring 11 goals and conceding 5, which gives them a certain advantage. Formation Wuhan Sanzhen: Last round, they played in a 433 formation, with Tudor Tourelli in the centre and Palacios and Sauer on the wings. Wang Jinxian, Zheng Kaimu and Liao Chengjian played in the midfield, while Deng Hanwen, Ren Hang, Park Zhisu and Chen Zhechao played in the backline. However, Tudor is doubtful for this match as he was injured after only 17 minutes last time out, and if he is unable to play, the team's attacking pivot in the middle of the pitch will be affected. Beijing Guoan: The team is expected to play a 4-guard formation with star goalkeeper Han Jiaqi in goal. The backline is likely to consist of Li Lei, Fan Shuangjie, Wu Shaocong and Spajic. In the midfield, Serginho and Dawan will be at the back, while Lin Liangming and Yang Liyu will be the wingbacks. Up front, the combination of Zhang Yuning and Fabio Abreu is expected to continue to start, while veteran Zhang Xizhe is likely to be on the bench. Match Analysis In terms of overall strength, Beijing Guoan's current form and ranking are better than Wuhan Sanzhen, and the team has a more complete line-up, strong foreign aid, and strong attacking power in the midfield. However, Wuhan Sanzhen has the home field advantage, and the victory in the last round of matches has boosted the confidence of the team, and the morale and fighting spirit of the players are flourishing. All things considered, Beijing Guoan has a slight advantage in terms of strength.
