Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Guangzhou R&F in 6th and Tianjin Teda in 10th place.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

It's quite the trip for Tianjin Teda when visiting Guangzhou R&F as the cities are 2100 kilometers apart.
