Two teams pushing toward the top of the Chinese Super League will meet on Sunday when second-placed Shanghai Shenhua will host Tianjin Jinmen Tiger.
The visitors are sat in fourth currently, and head into this match with a 14-match unbeaten streak in all competitions.
We say: Shanghai Shenhua 1-1 Tianjin Jinmen Tiger
This match is set to be a very close one due to how impressive both teams have been this season, particularly from a defensive point of view.
Because of how strong they have each been it is likely that they play out to a draw, with neither team wanting to give too much away.

The two teams sitting in the Chinese Super League relegation zone will face off on Sunday when Dalian Pro play host to Qingdao Jonoon.
Dalian are winless in 12 league matches, while the visitors have gone six top-flight games without recording a victory.
We say: Dalian Pro 2-1 Qingdao Jonoon
Although both sides will be low on confidence due to their current league positions, we think the hosts will utilise home advantage to claim a narrow victory over Qingdao, who have lost six of their seven away league games this season.

Zhejiang Professional will attempt to extend their unbeaten run to eight games in all competitions when they face Cangzhou Mighty Lions on Sunday.
The hosts, who sit in seventh place, are looking to return to winning ways after losing their last two competitive fixtures.
We say: Cangzhou Mighty Lions 1-2 Zhejiang Professional
Zhejiang have won five of their last six matches in all competitions, and we think they will claim another victory against a Cangzhou side who have lost three of their previous four home games.

Nantong Zhiyun will be aiming to move above Meizhou Hakka in the Chinese Super League table by beating them on Sunday.
The visitors are ahead of their forthcoming opponents on goal difference, with both teams occupying the two positions directly above the relegation zone.
We say: Nantong Zhiyun 1-1 Meizhou Hakka
With both teams desperately hoping to avoid falling to yet another defeat, we can envisage them adopting a safety-first approach when they meet each other on Sunday.
Only a victory for either side would guarantee that they remain outside of the relegation zone, but we are predicting a score draw, leaving them vulnerable to falling inside the bottom two places.
