Tanjong Pagar vs Balestier Central Prediction: The guests will cart away the maximum points

On Monday, Tanjong Pagar will square off against Balestier Central at the Jurong East Stadium. Hasrin Jailani's men have been terrible this season, and it’ll take a lot of effort for them to secure a point against a Balestier Central who have lost three consecutive matches in the league. 

Last five matches: LDLLL

Tanjong Pagar failed to impress on their home ground for the umpteenth time this season. The Jaguars march here with another defeat at home, conceding seven times against Geylang International while scoring twice. Tanjong Pagar have now lost three consecutive matches and have not won in nine games. 

Tanjong Pagar have let in the most goals in the division (57) and have lost twelve times in fifteen starts to the season.

They have won twice, lost five, and drawn a game on their ground this season. 

Last five games. WDLLL

After a decent start to this season, Balestier Central lost three consecutive league matches for the first time since April last year. A terrible run that is marred by missed chances and horrible defence. The Tigers' form nosedived as they march here with a (1-4) defeat on their home turf against Geylang International. 

The result was after their (2-3) loss against Albirex Niigata on their home ground. Their second-highest scorer, Ismail Sassi, who was shown a red card in their defeat against Albirex Niigata, will start tomorrow. Balestier presently occupy the fourth place on the log, and anything but the maximum points will see them drop down. 

Peter de Roo's men have won two, lost two times, and drawn three on the road this season. 

Over their previous twenty meetings, Balestier Central have recorded fourteen wins while Tanjong Pagar have won four and two games, ending in a stalemate. Balestier Central have been below par lately but still miles ahead of Tanjong Pagar who have failed to win over their last nine games in the league. 

The guests' defence have been breached many times this season, and we are confident they’ll not keep a clean sheet here. We expect the hosts to get a goal before the break for 2.30.

Their second-highest scorer, Ismail Sassi, who was shown a red card in their defeat against Albirex Niigata, will start tomorrow, so we expect the guests to score more than a goal before the break for 2.11.

Expect more goals after the break from this fixture. 

Good luck!
