Dream 11 Picks
Goal-Keeper
Our Dream 11 team will begin with the selection of Guangzhou’s goal-keeper. It would have been difficult to negate him after shipping in two goals the last time around but had it not been for Jiaqi Han’s remarkable show of shot stopping, the side would have failed to hang onto its slender one goal lead.
Defenders
Having let in a measly four goals in six matches, the least by any side in Group A, it was only befitting of us to paint this docket in Shandong Luneng’s colors. We have the three names lining up the slot for us from the club, players who have been an extremely tough nut to crack for oppositions.
Also, with Guangzhou having the least number of goals at a measly five in the group, this is increasingly looking like another cleansheet for the visiting team. It’s a discourse which sees us imbed all of Liu Yang-II, Wang Tong and Zheng Zheng from the side for the forthcoming contest.
Midfielders
Guangzhou might have rejuvenated themselves but it’s hard to discount the fact that they constitute the worst defence in the league. This is a side which has been torn apart to be hit for 13 goals, a team whose plight is set to worsen when it takes on second placed Luneng.
It’s a defence bound to be left picking up the pieces infront of Luneng’s top scorer Marouane to see us make him the first pick for the day. Partnering him up is Moises Magalhaes who has tone one goal and two assists to spearhead the side’s attacking travails.
Hao Junmin will wrap up the set of picks from the club while the home side sees us make one goal man, Dia Saba the first pick from the club. Coming in next to him is Dembele, a player whose ability to occult attacking plays has the ability to leave sides skewed in their scoring attempts.
Strikers
Had it not been for Eran Zahavi, Guangzhou could have discarded all their ambitions of rediscovering their winning touch. He’s been involved in every single goal for the side till date with his four goals and one assist see him act as the focal point of the side’s attack.
Elsewhere, Luneng see us opt for the myriad and guile filled Guo Tianyu for the impending outing.
Captain And Vice-Captain
With four goals in his artillery, Marouane will be our captain for the day while Moises is the vice-captain.
