While Guoan are still fighting for their first league title since 2009, their city rivals Beijing Renhe, sitting at the bottom of the table, have to battle to avoid relegation, although their hope of staying in the top flight is getting diminished after a 1-1 away draw against second last side Shenzhen.

Cameroon forward John Mary's header in the 26th minute opened the scoring for Shenzhen, but Zhu Baojie leveled the score for Renhe from a close-range shot before the second half.

Both sides may not satisfied with the result as a win is very needed to keep them staying in the top flight.

Renhe now ranked the last place of the standings with only 12 points from 21 rounds of league games, while Shenzhen were just three points ahead of Renhen, but haven't won any game in their recent 13 appearances.

Spanish coach Rafael Benitez and his Dalian Yifang claimed their third victory of all competitions in a row.

Salomon Rondon came off bench to score a brace, helping the side beat Chongqing Lifan 3-1 away. Belgium's midfielder Yannick Carrasco added another goal for Dalian while Fernandinho Silva scored for Chongqing.

Elsewhere, Shanghai Shenhua tied Wuhan Zall 2-2 at home while Guangzhou R&F also drew 2-2 with Jiangsu Suning.
