Round 18 Predictions
As we look forward to the last round of the league, the CTTSL title will be decided among Shandong Weiqiao, Shandong Luneng and Bayi Dashang for the men. If Shandong Weiqiao wins over Sichuan Changhong, which they are very capable of doing so, Shandong Weiqiao will take the title of the 2017 CTTSL. If Shandong Weiqiao lost and the other 2 contenders win, the champion will go to Shandong Luneng. Bayi Dashang would only win when the other 2 teams lose. For the women's game, Wuhan Hundred Percent has defended its title in the last round leading the leader board with 15 wins and 2 losses. The followings are the matches that I think worth-following though some of which are not decisive matches for the league title.
Men's Round 18
Match 89: The focal point of this match will be Ma Long playing against Shang Kun and Fang Bo. Apart from these players who have been active in the international scene, I anticipate Liu Dingshuo a up-and-coming young player to put up some challenge to these players.
Match 86: The finalists of last year's CTTSL find themselves ending out of the champion podium this year but this round is worthwhile to watch. My focus will be on the match between Fan Zhendong and Liang Jingkun. Fan Zhendong may have more international achievements than Liang Jingkun but it can be a close game, especially when Liang Jingkun hit.
Women's Round 18
Match 86: Last year's CTTSL finalists will face off in the last round of 2017 CTTSL. An injured ankle upset Zhu Yuling and Shandong Luneng at 2016 CTTSL Grand Finals. As they lost 3-1 to Wuhan Hundred Percent. This year Zhu Yuling comes on strong and carry a dream of adding one more CTTSL title to Shandong Luneng which has won 5 titles under the leadership of Li Xiaoxia. Although the dream could not be fulfill this season, they will try their best to prove themselves against Wuhan Hundred Percent a relatively new table tennis club defending its title under the leadership of Liu Shiwen and Feng Yalan.
Match 90: Wang Manyu has been having a decent CTTSL season, given the depth of the team. If she gets to play against Ding Ning in this round and winning over the grand-slam winner could end her 2017 CTTSL season on a high note.
