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 Young and Geylang International.
This pitch has artifical turf, which is not Geylang International's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on artifical turf Geylang International have performed like this: Played 14 matches resulting in 10 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats with the goal stats 24-12 (scored/conceded).
These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
Young Lions form and stats
Young Lions's struggle is real here at Jurong West Stadium with only 3 points collected from 6 S. League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-0-5. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Young Lions, their manager N. Nasir and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.
Young Lions haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 184 minutes ago. R. Stewart scored that one.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Albirex Niigata S (0-2).
As you see from the result above, Young suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.
There will be little rest for Young after this match as they are travelling to Tanjong Pagar for a S. League game in only three days.
Young aren't scoring a lot here at Jurong West Stadium in the league, with only 4 goals from 6 games. As for conceded goals, Young's unpleasant statistic is 18 goals surrendered. Young Lions's defense is seriously deficient as 18 goals have been conceded in these matches.

A. Recha was the last player to score for the away team. International haven't scored a league goal in the last 212 minutes.
Two away games in a row for Geylang International, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-2 versus Balestier Khalsa in the S. League. A 0-3 loss hosting Home United before that.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The S. League trip to Tampines Rovers.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting International as they have only managed to score 3 times from 5 away games in the league. The International manager M. Ali has some worries about the defense as 11 goals have been conceded in these travels.
