Albirex Niigata vs Young Lions Prediction: We expect to see more than two goals before the break

Champions Albirex Niigata will commence their title defence with a matchup against Young Lions at the Toa Payoh Stadium on Saturday—the battle between the first and the team that ended at the bottom of the table last year. 

The champions snatched the SPL under the watch of Lion City last season as they led with two points. Lion City's four games winless run towards the end of the season made the difference as Albirex bounced on the opportunity to unseat the former champions. Albirex Niigata have made some great signings, and we hope they can retain the SPL trophy this season.

The visitors were literally the worst side over the previous ten seasons, and the reason why they keep playing in the Premier League is down to the fact that teams don’t relegate. They lost twenty-four times in twenty-eight games last campaign while conceding one hundred and three goals.

Young Lions didn’t win any game last season while conceding fifty-two times.

The last twenty meetings have seen Albirex Niigata with twenty wins. There is nothing much to discuss here as the home side will inevitably win here. Bet on the home score in both halves for 1.70.

We expect to see more than two goals at halftime for 1.40.

We expect the home side to score more than two here for 1.70.

Good luck!
