When Guangdong Southern Tigers and Beijing Royal Fighters take on each other today, not only the side’s ardent supporters but the raucous viewers of the league will be waiting with abated breath to see the outcome of this encounter. This is a clash which could potentially define the way in which the league standings shape up, a tie between two sides vying to occupy the coveted first spot.
Having reserved the prestigious spot in their favour at the moment, Guangdong have emerged as overwhelming favourites for the glistening trophy. The side is the only side to sit unbeaten in the second round of the CBA 2019-20, a team which with six spins in succession has made their emphatic brand of basketball apparent for everyone.
With no one coming even close to touching them, the expectations from Beijing Royal Fighters to finally crack open Guangdong’s armour are colossal. On a four game winning spree after their overtime win the last time around, the side emerges as one of the sternest tests to Guangdong, a team capable of exposing and exploiting the chinks in the home side’s bastion.
Probable Winner
While Fighters’ 117-115 win the last time around has the potential of being written in the golden chapters of the side’s league, the one thing that tie did was bring to light the defensive issues engulfing the side. And up against the league’s most sublime attack, these predicaments will rise to the brim once again, issues which will plug back Fighters’ bid to make it five wins in a row.

GST Vs BRF Dream11 Picks
Point Guard
Point guard Xu Jie has played an integral role in keeping the league leader’s intergirty intact till now. Not only did he alude us towards his basket shooitng attributes the last time around with 15 points, his assists were more pivotal with the player ensuring the ball has transitioned from defence to attack with ease for the side.
Shooting Guard
Four points and four rebounds for Haojia Zhang make him a more than viable pick at 6 credits for the side. Although he is given a restricted outing on the court, the player’s scrimmages more than justify his mere 6 credit price tag with his shooting arounds capable of roping in a slew of points from the deep.
Small Forward
If anyone still had any question marks over Kyle Fogg’s stature, the player was quick to debunk those claims and silence all the sounds around him the last time around. Rebutting his naysayers, the shooting guard showed that he possesses it in him to emerge as the league’s most sublime performer with a behemoth 48 point, 9 assist and 6 rebound game winning performance for his side in a cliff-hanger.
Power Forward
He will be accompanied by Du Runwang who took centrestage for the side inside the paint. With 15 points, a magnitude of which were delivered inside the paint, the player made full use of his floating jump points and crossovers with his ball handling abilities leaving the opposition in a quagmire.
Fighters on the other hand will see Arnett Moultrie grace the land of our Dream 11 side. Its not due to his 20 points in the paint the last time around but more so given his 8 rebounds, ones which saw him win the battle of the boards for the side and transition the ball from defence to attack with consummate ease.
Centre
11 points and 5 rebounds for Zong Zan the last time he stepped onto the court will see us make the Fighters player our centre for the day with the player capable of guarding the opposition with ease and helping usher in pivotal blocks and steals for the side. On the other hand, the table toppers will find coverage in the indomitable Junfei Ren after the player delivered 15 points, 4 assists and 5 rebounds in the culminating stages of his side’s 117-115 win.
Star Player
Fogg’s staggering 48 performance in the last encounter sees him become our star player while Moultrie is the vice-captain.
