Shanghai vs Chengdu: Round 23 of the CSL

Shanghai Shenhua and Chengdu Blades will face off in round 23 of the Chinese Super League on Sunday, with both teams hoping to maintain their unbeaten record.

The Shanghai team is currently sitting at the top of the table with 16 points from eight games, while Chengdu is just one point behind them in second place. The Blades have been impressive this season, winning four of their last five matches and conceding only three goals in that time.

The Shanghai team has a strong defensive record, having conceded just six goals in their first 18 league games. However, they have struggled against opponents who play fast-paced football, with the Blades being one of those sides.

Chengdu, on the other hand, has shown that they can be a dangerous attacking force when given the right opportunities. They have scored 14 goals in their last seven matches, including a stunning 5-0 win over Beijing Guoan in their previous game.

Both teams will be looking to secure maximum points in round 23, with a victory for either side putting them in a strong position to challenge for the title. It promises to be a closely contested match, with both teams having the ability to cause problems for each other.
