Last season Tianjin Quanjian promoted to the elite division and doesn’t lose among the strongest teams in China. Having won two back-to-back matches vs. Chongqing Lifan 1:0 and vs. Tianjin Teda 3:0, Fabio Cannavaro’s side occupies the sixth place in the table with 16 points earned and 13-12 goal difference after 11 gameweeks. Tianjin Quanjian got five points, four goals for and six goals against in five away clashes.
The opponents have never met before. Both rivals demonstrate suitable results in this season, however, the teams’ experience plus home-field advantage as well as Felix Magath’s knowledge may play crucial role in the hosts’ triumph in the forthcoming battle.
Prediction for the match: Shandong Luneng to win.
