Balestier Central vs Brunei DPMM Prediction: The guests can pull a surprise stunt against the Tigers

Balestier Central will square off against Brunei DPMM at the Bishan Stadium on Saturday. The Tigers have had a great start to the season, and having secured the maximum points over Young Lions, they’ll be keen to overwhelm their opponent here. 

Last five games. DWLDW

The Tigers returned to winning ways as they defeated Young Lions on their ground. Balestier Central, who conceded with just five minutes on the pitch, fought back to amass all the points. Balestier Central have scored more than a goal in all their matches this season, but their defence have been abysmal this season, and that might cost them a top-four finish in the long run. 

Balestier Central were the only side that didn’t draw a game in the league last season, however, they have shared the spoils in two of their previous five games.

The guests have been below par lately, heading here without a win over their last three matches. DPMM surrendered to a struggling Tanjong Pagar team on the road, becoming the only side to have lost to the hosts this season. The result was after their hard-fought (3-3) stalemate against Geylang International on their ground. The guests are determined to prove themselves in this competition after their terrible performance last campaign. Brunei DPMM have conceded ten goals this season, and they need to fix up at the back. 

Over their previous twenty meetings, Balestier have won seven times while Brunei DPMM have won nine and four matches ending in a tie. Balestier Central have improved in front of goal this season, but nothing has been done to their defence. They have conceded nine times over their previous three matches and must be at their best not to deny their opponent goals here. At the same time, Brunei DPMM have struggled lately due to their terrible defensive performance, and we think they’ll struggle against their opponent.

We think both teams stand an equal chance of securing the maximum points, and we are going to back Brunei DPMM to win either half, even though they might not secure the maximum points.

We expect to see more than a goal before the break for 1.63.

Both teams might even get a BTTS at halftime for 2.46.

Good luck!
