Here's all you must be aware of, and a little bit more, before watching the Pulau Pinang - Sabah match!

- Pulau Pinang have scored at least twice as many goals at home as Sabah have scored away.
Sabah have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 4200 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
