After 15 rounds of the Chinese Super League, there is a one-month break. Chengdu Rongcheng leads with 13 points, while the Shanghai duo sit in 4th and 5th from bottom, and Tianjin is at the bottom with 5 points.

After the 15th CSL round, the June international break starts, so CSL sides have a month off. Round 16 will take place at the end of June, while mid-June sees CSL teams involved in the CFA Cup (4th round).

With 15 rounds played, Chengdu Rongcheng holds a 13-point lead at the top, seemingly securing this season's title. Last season's champions and runners-up, the Shanghai duo, are surprisingly low: defending champion Port is fourth from bottom, Shenhua fifth from bottom, and Tianjin is bottom with 5 points, all fighting to avoid relegation.

The CSL standings after 15 rounds are as follows:

1. Chengdu Rongcheng: 37 points, title contenders.
2. Chongqing Tonglianglong: 24 points, difficult to secure an AFC Champions League spot.
3. Dalian Yingbo: 22 points, recent form has been poor.
4. Yunnan Yukun: 21 points, strong attack but weak defense, with big fluctuations.
5. Shandong Taishan: 18 points, the coaching staff's tactical limitations are holding the team back.
6. Qingdao West Coast: 18 points, a peculiar team—paradoxically performing better without coach Zheng Zhi.
7. Liaoning Tieren: 17 points, a coaching change brought immediate results. Xu Zhengyuan's arrival sparked three consecutive wins, proving the importance of a good manager in the CSL.
8. Zhejiang: 17 points, overly reliant on Mitritsa's performance, lacking overall teamwork. Wang Yudong, though young, shows signs of playing with a selfish attitude.
9. Shenzhen Xinpengcheng: 17 points, two straight wins have helped them regain form.
10. Beijing Guoan: 15 points, a victory over promoted side Chongqing Tonglianglong ended a two-game winless streak.
11. Henan: 15 points, highly inconsistent form, hard to predict.
12. Shanghai Shenhua: 13 points, plagued by foreign player injuries, with domestic players unable to fill the gap.
13. Shanghai Port: 12 points, defending champions struggling with foreign player injuries. Wu Lei is back but still not in top physical shape.
14. Qingdao Hainiu: 10 points, on a four-match losing streak, needing to fight for survival.
15. Wuhan Three Towns: 8 points, five consecutive draws, fighting hard to avoid relegation.
16. Tianjin Jinmen Tiger: 5 points, ended a six-match winless run but still need to fight desperately for survival.
