The Chinese Super League is back in action tomorrow as Wuhan Zall hosts Chongqing Lifan in an intriguing Group B clash. Neither side has been particularly impressive in the build-up to this game and will have to strive for all three points tomorrow.

Wuhan Zall has been the better side ahead of this fixture and has picked up two victories in its last four games in the Chinese Super League. The Wuhan-based outfit is currently in fourth place in Group B of the Chinese Super League table and will want to give its fans something to cheer about after a difficult year.

Chongqing Lifan has also been unable to impress its fanbase and finds itself in the sixth place after a string of stalemates in the past few weeks. The away side is in desperate need of a victory and will have to step up against a formidable Wuhan outfit tomorrow.

Wuhan Zall vs Chongqing Lifan Prediction

Wuhan Zall has a potent attacking combination and can torment a suspect Chongqing Lifan defence when it is at its best. Leo Baptistao has not hit the ground running in the Chinese Super League and will have to take up more responsibility tomorrow.

Chongqing Lifan is yet to win a single game in the Chinese Super League this season and has managed three draws and one defeat in four fixtures. The away side has been able to create chances in the final third but will have to plug the holes in its defensive lines to stand a chance against a determined Wuhan side.

Prediction: Wuhan Zall 2-1 Chongqing Lifan
