Selangor form and stats

Selangor are steadily winning Super League games and points here at Stadium Petaling Jaya. 7 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat is the summary from 9 games. Selangor has won so many consecutive home games (six in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Stadium Petaling Jaya. We remember; it was Johor Darul Ta'zim.

Selangor's previous game was also played at home, ending 3-0 versus Pulau Pinang (placed 10th). The home side are looking to build on that result.

Heartbreak before that as Selangor lost 0-1 at Pahang's place.

Goals, goals, goals? We don't know what will happen in this one, but we do know that 12 of the 14 most recent league matches with this team has had three goals or more.

Selangor can score goals in their home matches. After 9 league matches they have found the net 20 times. Selangor's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 10 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Sabah form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Sabah so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 2-2-4 (win-draw-lose).

Impressive finishing from Wilkin, Lok (2) and de Macedo secured the home win 4-0 against Pahang in their previous game. As mentioned above, Sabah was the only team on the pitch versus Pahang in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task. Which player has bagged at least one goal three matches in a row for the away side? The correct answer is Wilkin and that is impressive!

Before that, Sabah secured a home win against Kuching FA with the score 4-3.

Observe that 8 of this team's 10 latest league fixtures have ended with three or more goals.

In the opposite end, Sabah have conceded 12 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

The last head to head encounter ended Sabah - Selangor 2-1, earlier this season. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: four - three - three (Selangor wins - draws - Sabah wins). As for goals, eight matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two had two or less.
