Round 9 of the China's Super League Group B will be played this weekend and we can see that Shanghai SIPG are three points clear on the top, holding the lead to Beijing Guoans.
On Saturday the league leaders Shanghai SIPG will travel to meet the 4th in the standing team of Hebei CFFC.
Last time out the home side suffered an unpleasant loss, which might affect their next fixture in a bad manner.
The 5th and 6th will meet each other in another Saturday fixture, when Shijiazhuang will face Qingdao Huanghai.
A draw here seems like the most presumable result, but the away side definitely have been the better side in the most recent meetings between the two.
One team, who have been playing rather disappointing is Tianjin Teda, who have lost their 6 most recent matches.
On Sunday they will face Chongqing Lifan - a team, who have also shown poor results and are just one place above the home side.
Coming to the last one for this weekend, Wuhan Zall will host Beijing Guoan in a tense battle for the second place in the standing.
Both teams have shown some setbacks, but overall form have been rather prolific, so expect an interesting one here.
