Chengdu Qianbao will be looking to pick up their first Chinese Super League win of the season when they host Tianjin Jinmen Tigers on Friday.
The visitors, meanwhile, saw their run of three consecutive victories come to an end last time out and head into the weekend seeking to quickly return to winning ways.
We say: Chengdu Qianbao 1-1 Tianjin Jinmen Tiger
Tianjin Jinmen Tigers will fancy their chances of returning to winning ways as they face an out-of-sorts Chengdu Qianbao side who are yet to taste victory this season. While we anticipate a cagey affair at the Wuhua Hengpi Football Town, we predict the hosts will leave with another share of the spoils.

Guangzhou will entertain the challenge of Shanghai Port at the Jinzhou Stadium on Friday in round nine of the 2022 Chinese Super League season.
The hosts are aiming to avoid a fourth straight defeat in this one, while the visitors go in search of consecutive victories having returned to winning ways last time out.
We say: Guangzhou 0-2 Shanghai Port
Shanghai boast a vastly superior record in this fixture and are on a better run of results heading into the game. We expect them to come out victorious in a relatively easy manner come the sound of the full-time whistle.
