GUANGZHOU EVERGRANDE VS GUANGZHOU R&F PREVIEW & PREDICTION
Inaugural match of the Chinese Super League through the Cantonese derby between Guangzhou Evergrande and Guangzhou.
Guangzhou Evergrande :
Start a new edition of the Chinese Super League, in this case, with less lavish signings and with more continuity than usual in the sets. In this sense, one of the main beneficiaries may be the current champion, the Guangzhou Evergrande, who far from the large disbursements of other rivals of previous years has decided to maintain the structure of a champion team (as it has been in a row since the year 2011), with a base formed by outstanding players of the Chinese team, as is the case of forward Gao Lin and a number of foreign players already settled in the Chinese league, as is the case of Goulart and Alan, the two great stars of the Cantonese, and the incorporation of Nemanja Gudelj, ex-Ajax of Amsterdam and already several months in the country, which comes to fill the important low of Paulinho in the center of the Cantonese field, and that clearly seems to me a signing superlative for the level of the league. I do not count Jackson Martinez, who is not even for third China.
Good signings, continuity, an excellent block of Chinese players … on the basis of a winning group led by Cannavaro and which has already started the season with some doubtful results in the Asian Champions League (two draws) and an outstanding victory in the Super Cup of China 1-4 against a great team like the Shanghai Senhua.
Guangzhou:
For its part, the Guangzhou RyF has also opted for continuity, with players like Renatinho or Israeli Zahavi who have performed at a great level during last season and who explained the good classification of the smaller group of Canton. However, in general terms the block of the blue is of lower level than the team that wears red and depends too much on the success of the Israeli that comes from marking a real temporadón. I also need that third foreigner of flash, because neither Urso, nor Perovic are close to the level of the Gudelj, Alan or Goulart. In addition, the base of Chinese players is inferior to the set owned by Evergrande and Ali Baba. I hope a good season on your part, but it is a hard commitment to start the season.
Last year Evergrande only gave 2 games in his stadium, everything else was victories, and of those games 1 of them was against Tianjin with the league won and with players of the second team, so no conclusions can be drawn. Evergrande bets on a winning block, for continuity and for what works; and I hope they assert the superiority of their bloc, their biggest shooting this season and the coupling of their team.
PREDICTION: Guangzhou Evergrande to win @ 1.55
