Selangor form and stats

Selangor have an excellent away record in the Super League so far with 5-0-2 from 7 games.

Impressive finishing from Cujía and Rodríguez secured the home win 2-1 against Kuching FA in their previous game. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager Hoe when Cujía scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 46th minute.

A loss, in the FA Cup away at Johor Darul Ta'zim, earlier.

Take note that 11 of this club's 12 latest league games have ended with three or more goals.

The prediction for this game is lots of goals as Selangor alone have scored more than three on average in their league games away (22 from 7 played). It's not easy to score on Selangor as they have only conceded 6 goals from these away games.
