Tianjin Jinmen Tiger vs Hebei FC Prediction

Tianjin Jinmen Tiger are currently 6th in their Chinese Super League group, and are yet to win a game. It is early days though, and manager Yu Genwei will be keen to ensure that a poor start does not define their season.

Hebei FC, on the other hand, are 4th in their group. The Brazilian pair of Paulinho and Marcao will be crucial as their season progresses, while the acquisition of Norwegian midfielder Ole Selnaes on loan from Shenzhen FC could prove to be key.

Hebei FC might just edge past Tianjin Jinmen Tiger.

Prediction: Tianjin Jinmen Tiger 0-1 Hebei FC
