Chongqing Tongliang Long

vs

Henan FC

Preview

Chongqing Tongliang Long

• Unbeaten at home in the Chinese Super League 2026 (W3, D2, L0) and have conceded only five goals in five matches.
• Chongqing Tongliang Long have made a strong start to their top-flight campaign, standing second in the Chinese Super League 2026 table after claiming 18 points from their nine matches to date.
• Jianye Liu has put a disciplined and pragmatic style of play onto the field since taking over in December 2025, which has seen the club become a strong defensive unit on their home field, where they are unbeaten in the league (W3, D2).
• Chongqing have conceded just five times in five home matches in the CSL 2026 and should take some confidence from their solidity in those contests.
• Chunxin Chen is their main goal threat, scoring three goals in eight league appearances, with three of them coming in the last five, so he could be the man to make the difference.

Henan FC

• Henan FC have won one, drawn one and lost two of their four away league fixtures, conceding four goals.
• Henan FC have had a tough start to the season, languishing 11th in the table after collecting just five points from their first nine league games.
• Daniel Ramos’ men have had a more flexible style since he took charge in April 2025, with plenty of midfield rotation, a controlled possession game and selective high pressing to control the tempo.
• Gustavo has been their main playmaker, both in terms of goals (two) and assists (three) in eight league matches, but the visitors will need to be at their best to beat Chongqing.
