Terengganu perform at a high level so far being 2nd in the table. Sabah can look both up and down from their 8th position.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Terengganu and Sabah.

It's quite the trip for Sabah when visiting Terengganu as the cities are 4000 kilometers apart.
