Beijing Guoan VS Jiangsu Suning Match Prediction

Before their current struggles began, Jiangsu won both fixtures against Beijing Guoan last season – winning 2-1 at home an away.  That ended a lean streak in this fixture, however, as their most recent win before that was eight games ago in 2012. Only one of the last 16 Super League games between these two teams has been won by more than one goal, and that was back in 2011. Here are the results of their last five league matches:
Aug 21, 2016: Jiangsu 2-1 Beijing Guoan
May 08, 2016: Beijing Guoan 1-2 Jiangsu
Sep 20, 2015: Beijing Guoan 1-0 Jiangsu
May 23, 2015: Jiangsu 0-0 Beijing Guoan
Sep 13, 2014: Jiangsu 2-3 Beijing Guoan

Beijing Guoan vs Jiangsu Suning Betting Tips

Jaingsu Suning are suffering an awful season, with Fabio Capello the man brought in to arrest that slide. The victory in the cup in midweek will have lifted morale, but last year’s runners-up still have a lot to prove if they are to start climbing the table. Ramires’ continued absence, should he miss out again, will not help that.

Beijing Guoan’s overseas duo of Burak Yilmaz and Jonatan Soriano are in good form in front of goal, and with the two likely to continue together – after Soriano has missed out on several occasions to allow Ralf or Renato Augusto to occupy an overseas player spot – they will be the biggest threat to Jiangsu’s struggling backline.

Fabio Capello has a big task on his hand if he is to turn Jiangsu’s fortunes around – they may have finished second last year but there is no such thing as too good to go down, and they need to return to winning ways quickly. Beijing have been inconsistent, but will be hopeful of a win on Monday.

Beijing Guoan vs Jiangsu Suning Recommended bets with odds

Beijing Guoan are 21/20 with Bet365 and Ladbrokes to win on Monday and pile more misery on Jiangsu Suning. Until last year, they had a good record in this fixture too so they are generous odds for more reasons than just the league table.

Burak Yilmaz is 7/2 with Bet365 to score first, while Jonathan Soriano is 4/1 with both Bet365 and William Hill with Beijing Guoan’s forwards in good form.

This fixture does tend to be a close one, and a 2-1 Beijing Guoan win a good bet at 8/1 with Betfair or 15/2 with William Hill and Bet365.

Beijing Guoan vs Jiangsu Suning Prediction

Beijing Guoan start as favourties because of Jiangsu’s poor form, and with a new manager it is difficult to see where the visitors can get a league win from.

Correct score prediction: Beijing Guoan 2-1 Jiangsu Suning

Team News

Dun Ba returned in midfield for the win against Tianjin Teda – his first league start of the season – and could keep Ralf out again for Monday’s game. That would allow Jonatan Soriano to play as one of the three overseas players, alongside Burak Yilmaz and Renato Augusto.

Key Players

Burak Yilmaz has now netted eight times in ten games this season, with Jonatan Soriano contributing five in six from just behind him.

Team Form

Beijing Guoan won their most recent league fuxture 2-0 at home to Tianjin Teda, to end a run of three games without a win, but go into Monday’s game on the back of their 1-0 Chinese FA Cup defeat Shanghai Shenhua.

Beijing Guoan Predicted Starting Line-up

Expected Line-up: 4-2-3-1

Team News

Fabio Capello is still searching for his best XI, but has had to make do without Ramires for the last two matches. Boyu Yang returned from suspension to start at centre-back in their last league game.

Key Players

With Ramires absent, Jaingsu are dependent on fellow Brazilian Alex Teixeira for goals – he has provided seven in 18 games this season.

Team Form

A 1-0 home win in the Chinese FA Cup in midweek against Henan Jianye was Fabio Capello’s first in charge, and ended Jiangsu’s six-game winless streak. They drew their most recent away game 2-2 at Guizhou Zhicheng before a run of three consecutive home defeats prior to Wednesday’s cup win.

Jiangsu Suning Predicted Starting Line-up

Expected Line-up: 3-5-2

Fabio Capello got his first win in charge of Jiangsu Suning in midweek, but that Chinese FA Cup victory against Henan Jianye in midweek needs to be followed by a good performance in Beijing on Monday as they continue to struggle in the league. Last year\'s runners-up are in bad form, but Beijing Guoan have also been inconsistent, giving the visitors a chance of at least a draw on Monday.

Jiangsu Suning have won just one of their 13 league games so far this season, drawing five and losing seven of their other 12 fixtures.
