Tianjin Jinmen Tigers
- Tianjin Jinmen Tigers are 15th in the Chinese Super League 2026, with 8 points from 17 matches.
- Tianjin Jinmen Tigers are favored to defeat a strong and improving Liaoning Tieren FC side at the Tianjin Olympic Sports Centre this Sunday afternoon, but only by the narrowest of margins.
- Tianjin have won two, drawn one and lost two of their last five across all competitions and they have won only two of their nine home games in the Chinese Super League 2026 this term, drawing three and losing four.
Liaoning Tieren FC

- Liaoning have had a similar up-and-down form recently with three wins and two defeats in their last five and they are having a much better season than the Tigers overall with a 20-point haul putting them in 8th in the Super League.

They beat the Tigers 3-0 at home three months ago when the two sides last met in the Chinese Super League 2026, so they know exactly how to get at their opponents.
