Beijing Guoan will travel to the Suzhou Olympic Sports Centre Stadium to take on Tianjin Teda for their third league game of the Chinese Super League 2020 season.
The Chinese capital side have won each of their first two Group B matches this term, notching wins courtesy of their defensive rigidity and discipline. They have only managed to score thrice, but conceded just one goal.
The same cannot be said for Tianjin, who collected their first point of the season in their 2-2 draw versus Chongqing Lifan. Not to mention, they have lost all of their previous four encounters against Beijing, conceding at least two goals in each of the last three matches over the same opposition.
Guoan will be riding high on confidence due to their stellar away form as well, as they have won their previous four games on the road.
A win tomorrow could take Beijing Guoan to the top of the table, at least until Shanghai East Asia play their match a couple of hours later.
On that note, we bring all you need to know ahead of Tianjin Teda vs Beijing Guoan.
