  • Playing at home, the Dalian Kewei team shows high - intensity competition. The central defenders have smooth lateral positioning and connection. The ample sunlight on the field gives players a broader view for passing and receiving the ball. However, the team has some weaknesses. During long - term positional attacks, the forward players' running lines in the frontcourt are repetitive. When facing a compact defense, they are less efficient in breaking through the opponent's line. Also, when the full - backs press forward significantly, there are gaps left behind them. The intermittent back - and - forth running leads to a notable decline in physical strength. Once the team gains the upper hand in the game, they will actively retreat to the flanks to strengthen the defense, avoiding leaving space for the opponent's counter - attacks by over - committing all players forward. Dalian Kewei implements a progressive front - court pressing system at home. The two defensive midfielders in the

  • The match between Dalian Kewei and Beijing Guoan in the Chinese Football Association Cup is a single - elimination game. There is a significant gap in the core fundamentals, but there's a high possibility of an upset. Dalian Kewei, a team from the Chinese second - tier league, has a rock - solid home - field defense this season. They've achieved multiple clean sheets in recent home games. Their preferred 5 - 3 - 2 formation is like an impenetrable iron bucket. They rely on their strong back - line to intercept and block the middle - way penetration of opponents.

  • Ulsan Hyundai's recent form has been less than stellar, despite the return of two key foreign players. This season, after 18 rounds, Ulsan Hyundai has achieved 8 wins, 4 draws, and 6 losses, accumulating 28 points to sit in the 4th position. Their home record stands at 4 wins, 1 draw, and 4 losses, with significant fluctuations. They've scored 14 goals and conceded 15, indicating a clear imbalance between attack and defense. The team's current form is mediocre. In the previous round, they drew 2 - 2 with Daejeon Citizen away from home. They showed good resilience by coming from behind to equalize, yet they've failed to secure a win in the last 4 league rounds. The return of two foreign players, center - back Odhiambo and forward Farias, is expected to boost the team's performance in both attack and defense. However, their current state seems to be just average, and it remains to be seen whether they can fully integrate into the team and lead Ulsan Hyundai to better results. Incheon Uni
