Since their scrappy victory against Young Lions, Tanjong Pagar have lost four consecutive matches. In those matches, they conceded eighteen times while scoring six. More recently, they suffered another home defeat as they were beaten by ten men at Balestier Central.

Tanjong's major problem lies in their defence, as they have conceded more than a goal over their last ten games.

Tanjong Pagar used to be a great side but have been terrible this season. Tanjong Pagar have won three and lost six away from home this season.

Over their previous twenty games, Tampines Rovers have won eleven while Tanjong Pagar have recorded three victories and six games ending in a draw. Tampines Rovers have not been playing to their standards in recent games and have escaped being beaten several times this season. Tanjong Pagar are a terrible side and have struggled against average opponents in their recent matches. Tampines Rovers can improve their goal difference here, and we expect them to win before the break for 1.58.

This game won't get as many goals as we think; bet on a total of under 3.5 goals for 2.30.

We expect the home side to score in both halves for 1.89.

Good luck!
