Guoan’s goal-poaching prowess
Beijing has looked like a well-oiled machine since the appointment of Quique Setien as head coach in December 2024. He has instilled a clear, possession-based style of soccer on the side, with a structured buildup, high press and tempo control through the midfield. This has seen the team sit top of the Super League 2025 with 32 points from 14 games.
Our Beijing Guoan FC vs Yunnan Yukun FC prediction is influenced by their rampant home form, winning 6 and drawing 1 of their last 7 in the league, conceding just 4 goals. Fabio Abreu has been their marksman with 8 goals in 14 league games and is always a threat to score in any game.
Yunnan have had a good run of form themselves and currently sit 7th in the table on 19 points from 14 matches, enough to keep them in the mid-table mix. They have been more dogged and have a tactical pragmatism about them since Joern Andersen took over as head manager in June 2023. In this respect, the team are a lot more disciplined in their shape and less willing to press high up the field.
