Chinese Super League leaders Wuhan Three Towns will square off against Guangzhou FC at the Jinzhou Stadium in league action on Thursday.
Guangzhou failed to build on their first win of the campaign against Hebei on 19 June, as they fell to a 2-1 loss against Shanghai Shenhua on Sunday. With three points to their name, they remain in 16th place in the standings.
Wuhan Three Towns made it three wins in a row as they recorded a 5-0 win against Hebei in their previous outing. They are enjoying a solid campaign in their first season in the top-flight and currently boast the best attacking and defensive record in the league (scoring 21 goals and conceding three goals).
Guangzhou FC vs Wuhan Three Towns Head-to-Head
The two sides met for the first time earlier this month at the Puwan Stadium, with Wuhan Three Towns securing a 6-0 win, which remains the biggest victory of the season in the Chinese Super League.

After failing to score in their first four league games, Guangzhou have scored one goal apiece in their last two games. Wuhan have the best defensive record in the league, so the odds of Guangzhou finding the back of the net here do not look good.
