The Chinese Super League returns this week and will see Chongqing Liangjiang host Wuhan on Tuesday morning.
Chongqing Liangjiang have resumed their league assignments rather poorly. After playing out a 1-1 draw against Tianjin Jinmen, they lost 1-0 to Dalian Pro on home turf last week. They then lost 4-1 to Shanghai Shenhua on Saturday.
Chongqing Liangjiang sit sixth in the Relegation Round with just 12 points from 17 games. They will be looking to pick up their first win since the restart on Tuesday.
Wuhan, on the other hand, have returned to club football in better form than they left. The visitors have picked up two wins and a draw in their three games so far, scoring 10 goals in the process.
Wuhan sit third in the table with 18 points. They are still quite a distance from the top of the table and will be looking to reduce the gap with a win later this week.
