Tianjin Jinmen Tigers
- Tianjin Jinmen Tigers are 14th on 19 points after 24 games.
- Yu Genwei has had the club in his hands since March 2021 and his style remains one of sitting back in a 3-5-2 or 5-3-2 formation and attacking on the break when possible.
Zhejiang Professional FC
- Zhejiang Professional FC are 10th on 28.
- Zhejiang Professional FC have been more progressive under Ross Aloisi's watch since he took over in January 2026.
- They press higher up the field, try to overload the flanks and play with the ball as opposed to against it.
Head-to-Head
The last 2 H2H matches in the Chinese Super League 2026 split one draw and one Zhejiang win.
Key Players
- Alberto Quiles tops the Tianjin scoring charts with 11 goals in 24 Chinese Super League 2026 appearances, so he's the man to score the counterattacks.
- Alexandru Mitrita has 8 goals and 12 assists in his 19 matches in China, so he's the package deal of creator and finisher that could unlock the game for the visitors.
Betting Insights
- We are sticking to a draw as our main bet in the result markets, as Zhejiang are only slight favourites at 2.59, Tianjin are similarly priced at 2.61 and the draw odds stand at 3.61.
- The close odds between the teams suggests that this will be a close game.
- The home side have won 3, drawn 4 and lost 5 in front of their own fans, so the Tianjin Olympic Sports Centre hasn't exactly been a fortress in the Chinese Super League 2026.
- With Zhejiang scoring 1.33 and conceding 1.92 goals per away game, we're looking at over 2.5 goals in the match at 1.66 and both teams to score at 1.51 to enhance the potential return.
Prediction
- We're going with the tie as our primary bet for this matchup.
- Zhejiang's attack looks lethal in the right mood and we feel that they have the capability to break down Tianjin's stubborn defence on Sunday, but they won't dominate the game as they did in their 6-0 win over Yunnan Yukun.
- Tianjin won't get as many of the chances that they usually do, but they'll make them count.
