Form: LLDLD

Penang FC have not been at their best performance this season, as they find themselves located in the bottom three in the standings. Their struggles can be attributed to their shaky defence, which is ranked the third-worst with 20 goals conceded from 12 games.

They recently played hosts to Sri Pahang FC at the City Stadium Penang, and home advantage had little effect in witnessing them prevent a 1-0 defeat courtesy of Mykola Ahapov's effort in the first half stoppage time. This extended their losing run to two matches, and additionally, they have failed to win any of their last five matches (L3, D2).

Form: WLDLW

Sabah FA, on the other hand, are currently experiencing a productive season in the Malaysia Super League campaign. They occupy fourth place in the standings and are level on points with third-placed Terengganu FC.

In their most recent match, they beat Perak FC 4-2 away from home, which was consolation for their surprising 1-0 defeat at the hands of PDRM beforehand. Their form in the last six matches has been poor, recording just two wins (L3, D1), although they come into this clash seeking to make it two wins on the bounce.

• Penang FC have won just one of their last six home matches in the Super League.
• Sabah FA have won seven of their last nine away matches in the Super League.
• Penang FC averages 1 goal per game when playing at home, and Sabah FA averages 2 goals per game when playing away.

In the last 11 meetings, Penang have won 2 times, Sabah FA have won 5 times, and there have been 4 draws, with the goal difference being 19-12 in favour of Sabah FA.

Penang FC have been in poor form in the league and come into this match searching for their first home win against Sabah FA since 2018. Sabah FA have not lost to Penang FC in their last four games, recording three wins and one draw. 

Before their goalless draw in the previous fixture, the away side was currently on a three-match winning streak, and we anticipate them to secure a comfortable win here by supporting them in the full-time market as we feel they'll be a difficult opponent to overcome.

• W2 for 1.66
• Half-time/Full-time - Sabah FA for 2.50
• Goals - Over 3.5 for 2.28
