Lion City are back to league activities after they failed to qualify from the group stage of the Asian AFC Championship, they were out after just seven points in all the six matches, conceding (14) goals in those matches.

They will try again next season but need to recover from that shambles performance. They defeated Tanjong Pagar (6-1) before heading for the Continental duties. Tanjong Pagar were performing perfectly well before the game but were beaten heavily by the defending champion.

They have lost once this season, winning five and drawing once, they have also conceded the fewest goals (4).

In the last twenty games played together, Lion City have won ten while Hougang United have won six and four matches have ended in a draw.

Lion City have nothing else to play for than to retain the league, they are far superior to others in the league and have recruited well this season, bet on away first half win for 1.70.

The visitors don't like conceding much, so it's going to be one-sided, we expect the away team to score over 2.5 goals for 1.65.

Bet on away score both halves for 1.60.

Good luck!
