Shandong Taishan found it challenging to break through Henan FC's solid defense in their most recent match, thus succumbing to a narrow 1-0 defeat away from home.

In light of this result, their two-match unbeaten run in the league was halted (W1, D1), and they will be aiming to return to winning ways. However, their performance in past weeks has not been inspiring, recording just one win in their last seven matches (L3, D3), and they could likely suffer defeat in this one.

With 34 points accumulated from 21 matches, Shandong Taishan occupies 5th place in the Chinese Super League standings. They are three points adrift of fourth-placed Beijing Guoan FC.
