Chongqing Tonglianglong FC have come off a good recent run, but their last two league games have been tighter and less productive in front of goal. Henan Songshan Longmen have been more varied, although a 4-0 win over Liaoning Tieren FC shows they can still get a result when things click. With Chongqing Tonglianglong FC set in a 5-4-1 and Henan Songshan Longmen likely in a 4-3-3, it looks like a match where structure and patience may matter more than open play.
Henan Songshan Longmen’s draw at west coast Qingdao suggests they can stay organized on the road, but their recent defeats also show they have been vulnerable when under pressure. Chongqing Tonglianglong FC have already beaten stronger opposition away from home in this run, so they should feel capable of taking something away here.

Forms guide and team overview
Chongqing Tonglianglong FC
Chongqing Tonglianglong FC’s recent form in the league is generally solid, although the last result was a 0-1 loss to Dalian Yingbo. Before that, they drew 1-1 with West Coast Qingdao and went on to win three straight, beating Shanghai Port 2-1 at home, Shenzhen Peng City 2-0 at home and Wuhan Three Towns 2-1 at home.

Henan Songshan Longmen
Henan Songshan Longmen’s recent league form has been inconsistent, with a strong win mixed in with several disappointing results. They beat Liaoning Tieren FC 4-0 at home, but that came after a 0-3 home defeat to Shanghai Shenhua and a run that also included a 0-0 draw at West Coast Qingdao and defeats to Dalian Yingbo and Shandong Taishan.
The draw at West Coast Qingdao shows they can hang on for a game away from home, but the wider sequence points to a team that has struggled for consistency. They will need a more controlled performance here if they are to build on this latest win.

Alignments and tactical configuration
Chongqing Toglianglong FC (5-4-1)
Expected lineup: Yao Haoyang (Goalkeeper), He Xiaoqiang (Defender), Lucão (Defender), Michael Ngadeu-Ngadjui (Defender), Qilong Ruan (Defender), Zhang Yingkai (Defender), Chen Chunxin (Midfielder), Ibrahim Amadou (Midfielder), Yuwang Xiang (Midfielder), Yuwang Xiang (Midfielder), Yuwang Xiang (Midfielder) (Forward)
Chongqing Tonglianglong FC’s expected 5-4-1 should give them a compact defensive base, with the backline protected by a crowded midfield. This form also leaves Du Yuezheng as the primary outlet, so his transitions will likely rely on getting him into useful areas quickly.
Henan Songshan Longmen (4-3-3)
Expected lineup: Gouming Wang (Goalkeeper), Huang Ruifeng (Defender), Iago Maidana (Defender), Lucas Maia (Defender), Yixin Liu (Defender), Bruno Nazário (Midfielder), Chao He (Midfielder), Shangyuan Wang (Midfielder), Abdurasul Abudulam (Forward), Gustavo (Forward), Gustavo (Forward)
Henan Songshan Longmen’s expected 4-3-3 gives them a more natural attacking spread, with width and central support around the front three. If Bruno Nazário and the midfield can supply Abdurasul Abudulam early, they should be able to test Chongqing Tonglianglong FC’s back five.
