China will come to a standstill for Wednesday's Beijing derby

"Since the start of last season, the Imperial Guard have conceded in 20/24 league games at Workers' Stadium"

Back Both Teams to Score @ 2.506/4 in Beijing Guoan v Beijing Renhe

Tobias Gourlay's headed to China for a derby match that could be more entertaining than many expect

Beijing Guoan v Beijing Renhe
Wednesday 12:35

We got the ding-dong battle we hoped for in Sweden yesterday. Hammarby went 1-0 and 2-1 up before needing a 90th-minute winner to beat Sundsvall 3-2 and make it 22 goals across the pair's last four Allsvenskan meetings. It's a fixture to keep an eye out for.

We've come to China today for one of tomorrow lunchtime's five Super League games. Top-of-the-table Beijing Guoan have a perfect W9-D0-L0 home record this season, but they might not have everything their own way against city rivals Beijing Renhe.

Roger Schmidt's home side have managed clean sheets in only 6/9 of those games and one of the most recent five. Since the start of last season, when the Imperial Guard finished fourth, they have conceded in 20/24 league games at Workers' Stadium.

In their second season in the Chinese top flight, Beijing Renhe are bottom of the table. Luis Garcia's men have earned just one point from a possible 24 on the road and, dipping back into last term, are now 16 away games without a clean sheet. So we're confident their hosts will find a way through them on Wednesday lunchtime. At the other end, they have scored themselves in 12/16. Travelling to the league leaders will be a test, of course, but records on both sides say 2.506/4 is on the generous side for both teams to score.
