Football Bet of the Day: Defences to shatter in China

Jiangsu Suning v Shanghai Shenhua
Friday 12:35

There was a shock in Helsinki yesterday as Honka sneaked a 1-0 win at reigning Veikkausliiga champions HJK Helsinki. After three days in Finland, it's enough to send us packing.

We've come to China for Friday lunchtime's Super League match between Jiangsu Suning and Shanghai Shenhua. The hosts won this fixture 5-1 last season. The campaign before that, it finished 2-2. This week, we fancy both teams can score once more.

This season, fifth-placed Jiangsu are W5-D1-L0 at the Nanjing Olympic Sports Centre. They've scored in all of those matches, but also conceded in every single one.

Fifteenth-placed Shanghai are yet to keep a clean sheet in seven away games and look all set to concede against higher-ranked opposition in this match. At the other end, the visitors have scored themselves in 6/7 and we fancy they can grab a goal to land a BTTS bet.
