It's only round two of the Super League for these squads. And fresh optimism here at Stadium Darul Aman as Kedah receive Terengganu. Don't miss this preview!
Kedah have less rest than Terengganu in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Super League game only four days ago. That game was an away game at Perak, so at least Kedah are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
Kedah form and stats
In the previous season, Kedah's league statistics were 8 wins, 3 draws and 11 losses, providing 8th place in the Super League. During these 22 matches they scored {32 goals} and gave away 41. Performing at their own stadium in the previous season Kedah produced 5-2-4 (win-draw-lost) with {16 goals} and 15 conceded.
Kedah enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Perak's place. The match ended 4-1.
Before that result, a home loss in the Malaysia Cup against Negeri Sembilan. This is expected to be a close game, with Kedah perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Kedah as a small favourite), we find 5 games. Kedah has won 2 of these, drawn 2 and lost 1.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Super League game versus PDRM in only three days. This game is also played here at Stadium Darul Aman.
Terengganu form and stats
Let's have a look at how Terengganu performed last season in the Super League: They landed a 2nd position in the league table after playing out 14 victories, 2 draws and 6 defeats. In total they scored 39 and conceded {20 goals} in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 6 - drew 0 and lost 5 with 19/16 goals scored/conceded. Terengganu have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Super League were 6 victories, 0 draws and 5 defeats from 11 fixtures.
Terengganu are travelling again after losing away to Johor Darul Ta'zim in their previous match (0-2).
A loss, in the Malaysia Cup away at Selangor, earlier. As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 7 similar matches played by Terengganu in our archives, and the results are: 3 wins for Terengganu, 2 draws and 2 defeats.
After this away game Terengganu return home for a Super League game against Kuala Lumpur. That game is only four sleeps after this.
Terengganu have the goal stats of 0-2 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
Head 2 Head
Last ten meetings involving these contenders: Kedah won three, Terengganu triumphed in five and we saw two draws. eight games with more than 2,5 goals, two matches with two goals or less. The matches between these sides have had a tendency to be ill-tempered, having seen 5 sending-offs from the last ten encounters.
