The Super League league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. These two teams are placed 12th and 8th respectively.
Dalian Yifang and Tianjin Teda should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
It's quite the trip for Tianjin Teda when visiting Dalian Yifang as the cities are 800 kilometers apart.
