The Kedah & Negeri Sembilan head coaches Sahak and Kuppusamy are both anxious about and feeling excited about this highly important fixture in the top area of the Super League standings.
- Kedah have the most conceded goals (17) in Super League
- Negeri Sembilan have the most scored goals in the second half (9) in Super League
Both contenders have had plentiful rest since their last game. Let's look for an energetic fixture!
Kedah form and stats
Kedah must be fairly happy with 6 points from their first three Super League games here at Stadium Darul Aman.
The home team returns to Stadium Darul Aman after drawing with MISC (placed 7th) on their last time out; the game ended 3-3. Opportunity lost for Kedah in the MISC match as a lead 3-1 was lost and what looked like a victory ended in a draw. The 3-3 game vs MISC was a bittersweet experience for Ngah. Despite scoring three goals the match ended a draw.
Preceding that match was the home game against Melaka United that was lost 2-3.The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Kedah matches with similar probabilities have ended with 6 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat (from 8 games).
Kedah have conceded 5 from these games.
Negeri Sembilan form and stats
The seven points Negeri Sembilan have gathered from their first three away trips in the Super League is impressive and could lead to great things if the form continues.
Sembilan failed to get anything from their last game, a home match vs Johor Darul Ta'zim (placed 1st) that ended with defeat 0-1. Negeri Sembilan were so close to getting something from the game against Johor Darul Ta'zim, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal eleven minutes into overtime.
Ahead of that match was the victory versus Selangor United at their stadium, the result 2-1.As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Negeri Sembilan playing away, we found 4 games. Results were 0 away wins, 0 draws and 4 home wins.
Sembilan find the net regularly in their away games. 4 goals from 3 away fixtures in the league. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (2 so far).
Head 2 Head
As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's seven Kedah victories, one draw and two Negeri Sembilan wins. Over/under statistics; eight of these games ended with three goals or more, two matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
