- Albirex Niigata S have the fewest conceded goals (1) in S. League

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
Albirex Niigata S form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Albirex Niigata S's two home games in the S. League so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Jurong East Stadium.
The Albirex goalkeeper Takahiro Koga is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 228 minutes without conceding a goal in the S. League.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Albirex, who played 0-0 against Balestier Khalsa. That match was also played at this venue (Jurong East Stadium). In the preceding match a 3-0 victory visiting Young Lions.
Albirex are traveling soon after this match as the S. League match at Home United awaits in three days.
At Jurong East Stadium, Albirex Niigata S has the goal stats of 3-1 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
Geylang International form and stats
Geylang International have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the S. League were 3 victories, 1 draw and 3 defeats from 7 fixtures.
International's last game was the home draw against Young Lions (1-1). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Hougang United wasn't a success with a 1-4 loss.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the International manager M. Ali as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Balestier Khalsa.
It's early days yet, but Geylang International has scored 1 and conceded 4 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
