Terengganu form and stats

Terengganu have performed here at Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin Stadium this season with 6 wins from 9 Super League matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 2 games and lost 1. With a nice streak brewing from their home games, Terengganu are also looking for their fifth consecutive victory regardless of location.

Terengganu's last game was hosting Melaka United (placed 9th) and winning 5-0. As mentioned above, Terengganu "killed" Melaka United in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency. Kipré was absolutely essential when Terengganu beat Melaka United 5-0, scoring three goals.

In the game before, an away victory match versus Pahang with a 2-1 scoreline.

Terengganu are believed to win this game, given a winning chance of about 70% by the bookmakers. We have checked our records for their performance in similar circumstances and found 6 matches and the win/draw/lost stats: Won 6, drew 0 and lost 0.

Terengganu have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 4 goals.
