This could be an interesting match as Tampines Rovers have their presumed home advantage while Hougang United are ahead 3 points in the S. League table.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Hougang United 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 6-4-14 (win-draw-loss) from 24 matches. There's local pride at stake here, as these teams are practically neighbours. Expect lots of passion from both players and supporters.
