An important duel in the bottom section of the Super League, with both Henan Jianye and Tianjin Teda experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 8th and the visitors in 8th place.
Henan Jianye 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.
Henan Jianye form and stats
With 0 Super League wins, 2 draws and 5 defeats from their home games, Henan Jianye, who have the most conceded goals (33) in Super League, are certainly not brimming with confidence. Two home wins in a row for Henan Jianye bring valid hopes of a third.
Jianye's last game was hosting Guangzhou R&F and winning 3-2. Before that match, a win away at Guangzhou R&F.
Some amazing scenes last match, when Fernando Karanga scored the winning goal two minutes into stoppage time.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.
