Peter Utaka is undergoing treatment with the Dalian Aerbin physiotherapists after he suffered a calf injury last Friday against Shanghai SIPG.

The Nigeria international, who netted a brace in the third round of matches, will not recover on time for the next game in the championship against Chuks Akabueze's Wuhan Zall.

Due to Utaka's injury - enforced absence, manager Li Ming is likely to play a one - man attack in the encounter with Wuhan Zall which takes place on Friday.

29  - year - old Peter Utaka is the fourth highest goalscorer in the Chinese Super League, with 2 strikes in 3 matches.

After the 3 - 3 draw with Shanghai SIPG, Dalian Aerbin currently sit in the 10th position in the Super League.
