At 18:00 Beijing time on the evening of October 2, the second round of the East Asian AFC Champions League Classic will stage a match that will attract the attention of Chinese fans, and the Chinese Super League Shandong Luneng Taishan will challenge the strong Japan J-League team Kobe Victory Ship.
In the first round of the AFC Champions League group stage, Shandong Taishan Qi won the victory, defeating the Australia team Central Coast Mariners 3:1 and winning the new season of the AFC Champions League. And Kobe Victory Boat drew 0:0 with Thai Super Buriram United in the first round. In terms of overall strength, Shandong Taishan does not have an advantage against Kobe Victory, and the Japan Kobe Victory team has delicate skills at the feet, pays great attention to ground coordination, and like their national team, the style of play is quite mature, which may cause great trouble for Shandong Taishan.
Past stats from both teams show that Shandong Taishan have never played against Vissel Kobe before, so this is a real encounter. In order to continue the rhythm of victory in the first round, Shandong Taishan will definitely go all out against Kobe Victory Ship in this away game, and coach Cui Kangxi should also unreservedly sacrifice the strongest elite main force to play. The following is a brief prediction of the starting lineup that Shandong Taishan may send in this game.
In the goalkeeper position, of course, the main goalkeeper Wang Dalei continued to guard the goal of Shandong Taishan; At the back, it is not surprising that Choi Kang-hee will continue to play his usual 4-back formation, and the 4 defenders who are likely to start will be Liu Yang, Shi Ke, Marcel Scallese and international titan Gao Zhunyi. Among them, Shi Ke and Marcel Scalese served as a double center-back combination; Liu Yang and Gao Zhunyi will be separated on the left and right sides and play as fullbacks.
In terms of midfield, there is no doubt that the main defender who is responsible for intercepting and stealing in the midfield of Shandong Taishan will still be the international-level fierce Li Yuanyi; And the one who partners with Li Yuanyi to form a double back combination should be Huang Zhengyu. Joining the attacking duo at the back two will be ace foreign player Zaishvili and naturalized titan Delgado, who has been in good form recently. The two echoed each other in the front court, forming a connection, and together formed the strongest joint force to feed the ball and deliver shells for the forward line of Shandong Taishan.
On the forward line, not surprisingly, Brazil striker Zeka, who played as a substitute in the last round, will be ordered to be in danger, and he will charge for Shandong Taishan in the front field and be responsible for destroying the city; Partnering Zeka in a forward combination should be his Brazil compatriot Cressan. Homegrown striker Bi Jinhao can only be on standby.
To sum up the above analysis, it is finally expected that the starting lineup of Shandong Taishan against Kobe Victory Ship in this game is: Wang Dalei; Liu Yang, Shi Ke, Marcel Scarleter, Gao Zhunyi; Li Yuanyi, Huang Zhengyu, Zaishvili, Delgado; Cressan, Zeka
