Shandong Luneng to Score First
Our first Wuhan Three Towns vs Shandong Luneng prediction backs the visitors to score. Even though Shandong Luneng lost the last duel in the FA Super Cup finals in a 2-0 away defeat against the Three Lions, it was proof of their resilience. Before that, they had defeated Wuhan Three Lions twice in a row in the CSL, scoring three goals in each case. They come to this game with a 6-match unbeaten run and recorded three clean sheet wins on the bounce in the CSL ahead of this trip. The hosts on the other hand won only once in as many games and kept only one clean sheet in their last six league games.
Both Teams to Score
Even though Shandong Luneng are the favourites to score first, having the home backing is something to also factor in this CSL clash between Wuhan Three Towns and Shandong Luneng. The hosts scored in all their last five games, so there is a good chance they will also find the back of the net at least once in this CSL fixture.

Wuhan Three Towns vs Shandong Luneng Preview: Lineups, Team Information and Form
Wuhan Three Towns
Wuhan Three Lions won only one of their last five CSL matches. They lost one of the games, noting that in the last 7 league matches, Three Lions recorded five draws, which is indicative of a team struggling to win games. Three of the draws had a scoreline of 1-1. Moreover, they scored in all the games during that period, so with home support, we expect at least a goal from Wuhan Three Lions in this clash with Shandong when they host the visitors at Hankou Cultural Sports Center on 9th June 2023.
Possible lineup: Dianzou Liu, Zhunyi Gao, Wallace, Yiming Liu, Hanwen Deng, Xiaobing Zhang, Pengfei Xie, Dinghao Yan, Nicolae Stanciu, Davidson, and Ademilson.
Shandong Luneng
On the flip side, Shandong Luneng is a team in great spirit due to their phenomenal run of form ahead of this clash with Wuhan Three Lions. The visitors won their last three games, keeping clean sheets in all of them. Moreover, they are unbeaten in six league matches and boast the 8th-best away run. A worrying run of the road after scoring 8 and leaking 9 goals on the road is, however, something they should address ahead of this clash with Wuhan Three Lions.
Possible lineup: Dalei Wang, Yang Liu, Zheng Zheng, Ke Shi, Tong Lei, Yuanyi Li, Zhengyu Huang, Binbin Liu, Cryzan, Chen Pu, Mourane Fellaini.
Player to Watch: Marouane Fellaini
Former Manchester United player is the player on our radar in this clash with Wuhan Three Lions. The player leads the score charts for Shandong Taishan with 4 goals and has been in top form for his team. Fellaini scored the last time out against Dalian Pro, so he remains a high scoring prospect.
Starting lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
