Guangzhou Evergrande were beaten by Tianjin Quanjian with 3:4 scoreline in their last clash in the Super League and broke their four-game winning run. Despite that failure, Luiz Felipe Scolari’s side won the first lap of the elite division with 37 points gained and 35-18 goal difference after 15 rounds. In regard to the away results, “Southern China Tigers” recorded five triumphs, two defeats, 17 goals for and nine goals against in seven encounters on the road.
Guangzhou Evergrande have not been broken by Beijing Guoan since the 26th of October 2014 across seven consecutive games covering five victories and two draws. I believe that the loss in the recent clash should invigorate the visitors and they will be more concentrated in defense in the forthcoming battle. As for the Guangzhou Evergrande’s performance in offense, they will show usual spectacular and effective football.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
