Football Bet of the Day: Defences to crack in China

Shenzhen FC v Beijing Renhe
Saturday 12:35

In Sweden yesterday, Norrby stood up for themselves and said no to defeat. Mjallby took a fourth-minute lead and all looked good for us, but they couldn't respond to an 18th-minute equaliser and the match finished 1-1.

We're looking to bounce back in China. Promoted Shenzhen are second bottom of the Chinese Super League. They host bottom-of-the-table Beijing Renhe in a Saturday-morning six pointer that could serve up at least a couple of goals.

Shenzhen are W3-D2-L4 on home turf. They've been shut out by better teams, but have fared better against fellow strugglers. They won matches against the teams now 12th, 13th and 14th 3-1, 2-1 and 2-1, which is why we like Both Teams to Score today.

Rock-bottom Renhe are W0-D1-L9 on the road this term. Unsurprisingly they've conceded at least once in all 10 of those matches. At the other end, they've notched themselves in five of the most recent eight and have a decent shot at beating a Shenzhen defence that has just one clean sheet from nine attempts at Shenzhen Universiade Sports Centre.
