Chengdu Rongcheng FC
- Chengdu Rongcheng FC have been in fantastic form in the opening months of the Chinese Super League 2026, winning five and drawing one of their first six games to top the table with 16 points.
- John Aloisi has done a cracking job so far since being appointed as head coach of Chengdu Rongcheng FC, implementing a high-tempo, wide attacking style that has turned their 4-2-3-1 system into a much more attacking, if somewhat risky, formation.
- His side have won their last three games in a row, including back-to-back away wins against Beijing Guoan and Wuhan Three Towns.
Zhejiang Professional FC
- Zhejiang Professional FC, meanwhile, have struggled to get into any kind of momentum so far in the Chinese Super League 2026, sitting in 10th with just three points from six games.
- Ross Aloisi was appointed as the manager ahead of the start of the campaign, and has brought an organised, systemised pressing style to the club.
- That is based on compact midfield pressing, and rapid vertical counter-attacks, with Zhejiang Professional FC playing at their best when they can play at tempo through the centre of the field.
