Incheon United will welcome Shandong to the Sungui Arena Park for an AFC Champions League fixture on Wednesday.
The home side are coming into this game on the back of a 1-1 draw away to Pohang Steelers in the K1 League over the weekend. Goals in either half from Gerso and Zeca ensured that the spoils were shared.
Shandong Taishan, meanwhile, comfortably dispatched Changchun Yatai with a 3-0 away win in the Chinese Super League. Cryzan, Moises and an own goal from Bi Jinhao saw the visitors leave with all three points to hold on to second spot in the table.

The Taishan Dui will turn their attention to the continent where their last game saw them fall to a 1-0 defeat on home turf against Yokohama F. Marinos. Incheon, meanwhile, cruised to a 4-0 home win over Kaya.
The victory means the Koreans lead the way at the summit of Group G with six points garnered from two games. Shandong are third on three points.

Shandong have to win this game to avoid falling further behind their two rivals for top spot in the group. Choi Kang-hee's side have been impressive on their travels in recent weeks and will be aiming to keep their seven-game unbeaten away streak going.
