Tianjin Teda oppose Meizhou Hakka for fame and triumph.
- Tianjin Teda have yet to win a game at home.
- Meizhou Hakka have not yet lost a game.
These teams have little in common geographically as Meizhou Hakka have to travel 1900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
The hosts Tianjin Teda saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Super League. That game was an away game at Shijiazhuang Ever Bright, so at least Tianjin Teda are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
