1st position in the Super League table for Johor Darul Ta'zim right now, a great achievement. The home team supporters hope for more goals as 6th-placed Kedah visit.

Insights:
  • Johor Darul Ta'zim have the most scored goals (54) in Super League
  • Johor Darul Ta'zim have scored at least twice as many goals at home as Kedah have scored away.

Johor Darul Ta'zim are already the Super League winners and can relax with the season objective secured. If they do relax it might give the away team a slightly better chance in this one. Kedah is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.

It's no vacation for neither Ta'zim nor Kedah as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Kedah form and stats

Kedah have only collected 10 points from their away games in the Super League, after 3-1-6 (10 played). Three has not been a lucky number for Kedah as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Selangor match.

There might be some fixture complaints from Kedah as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, 3-4 against Negeri Sembilan. As you can tell from the result, the match against Negeri Sembilan was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?

A loss against Johor Darul Ta'zim was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Nobody expects Kedah to collect anything from a game like this. The team has been David versus Goliath 4 times before, with the overall statistics of won 2, draw 0 and lost 2. When defeated, 1 match have been lost by two or more goals.

A new game in only four days for Kedah, the Super League home match versus Terengganu. Busy days.

Kedah are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 15 times in 10 away games so far. For Kedah, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head

Johor Darul Ta'zim have avoided a loss in the last 9 fixtures (7-2-0) against Kedah.

The contenders have played each other before in this season, with the final score Kedah - Johor Darul Ta'zim 1-3 registered in the official records.
