Competition: Singapore S. League
Date: Wed 18.September
Match begins: 11:45 (UTC)
Venue: Bishan Stadium (6254 seats)

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Home United are in the 6th position while the guests worry at 8th.

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 Home United and Young Lions.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Young Lions have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 4-5-28 (win-draw-loss) from 37 matches. There's local pride at stake here, as these teams are practically neighbours. Expect lots of passion from both players and supporters.
