The Chinese Super League concludes this week and will see Shenzhen host Beijing Guoan on Tuesday morning.
Shenzhen beat Hebei 1-0 in their game on New Year's Day, ending a three-game winless run that included back-to-back defeats. The hosts very much deserved their latest victory as they controlled the match proceedings in their usual fashion.
Shenzhen are fifth in the championship round with 32 points from 21 games. With nothing left to play for in the league season, the hosts will just be looking to end the campaign on a high.
Beijing Guoan's return to league football has been nothing short of calamitous. The visitors, who were seven points away from the top of the table, have seen that gap widen to 20 points after winning none of their last six games.
Beijing Guoan sit a place and two points behind Tuesday's hosts, who they can leapfrog in the table with a win later this week.
Shenzhen vs Beijing Guoan Head-to-Head

The two sides last faced off in a league clash last month. The game ended 2-2.
