Kelantan form and stats

Kelantan have collected 15 points from their Premier League home games so far after 4-3-1.

The home club members saw a 2-2 draw versus Terengganu City II last time out and are looking for a victory here. A disappointing finish for Kelantan in their match versus Terengganu City II as their 2-0 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 2-2 full time score. The home team have an in-form goalscorer in Anaku, having found the net in five games in a row.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting PDRM in a game that was won 2-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Kelantan have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 7 games) they have won 3 times, drawn 2 and lost 2.

Kelantan are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 8 games. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Kelantan are not conceding a lot of goals here at Stadium Sultan Mohammad IV in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 6 from 8 matches. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

PKNS form and stats

There's been little loot from PKNS's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 8 away games in the Premier League. PKNS only have 2 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw. It's looking increasingly bleak for PKNS who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. UiTM was the last time a defeat was avoided.

Izrin was the last player to score for the away team. PKNS haven't scored a league goal in the last 550 minutes.

It might be tough going out on the road again for PKNS, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-1 versus Kuching FA (placed 4th).

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Kelantan United wasn't a success with a 0-4 loss.

PKNS are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 5 draws and 2 defeats. From a total of 8 matches.

Some info for sports gamblers looking to bet on only one (or no) side scoring in this match: This club have played 5 consecutive league matches with just one or no side finding the net.

The attacking power of PKNS when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 8 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. In the opposite end, PKNS have conceded 12 goals in their away games. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
