Liaoning BenGang is currently struggling, with a record of 4 wins and 4 losses in the first 8 rounds, including a three-game losing streak. Their morale has been significantly impacted, suffering a narrow 90-93 defeat to Shenzhen Marco Polo in the previous round. The team faces ongoing issues, with key player Zhao Jiwei sidelined due to injury, and foreign player Wells missing the last game due to a recurrence of an old injury. In stark contrast, Shanghai Juss is performing well, currently near the top of the league with a 6-2 record, enjoying a four-game winning streak and excellent form. In their recent 90-70 victory over Beijing Enterprises, five players scored in double figures, with Goodwin achieving a near triple-double of 17 points, 11 rebounds, and 9 assists. A former Liaoning player, very familiar with Liaoning's tactical system, will be a key player for Shanghai. How he performs against his former team and whether he can break through Liaoning's defense will be a significant factor. Shanghai is likely to employ a positional game, leveraging Wang Zhelin's low-post offense and Lofton's drives to pressure Liaoning's interior. Liaoning's Mo Land must contain Wang Zhelin while also dealing with Lofton and Shanghai's pick-and-roll plays. Whether Liaoning's interior defense can withstand Shanghai's offensive pressure will directly impact the game's outcome. Match Prediction: Shanghai Juss to win, Away.
