They have played three games at the Sultan Ibrahim Stadium, which has already begun to resemble an unassailable fortress, winning three consecutive matches while only conceding one goal in their encounter against Kelantan FC via a penalty. (5:1). If that isn't enough to persuade a skeptic, they have won 10 consecutive home games dating back to the previous season, and they are unbeaten in 19 games.

They now hold first place with 21 points, five points ahead of second-place Kedah Darul Aman FC and third-place Selangor FC, and will be eager to increase the point margin even further.

Kedah Darul Aman FC come into this match on the back of an underwhelming 1:0 home victory against Penang FC, in which they were dull in attack, with just 5 goal attempts in the entire 90 minutes, and it goes without saying that it was an uncharacteristically poor performance from them considering that they were favourites.

Their unbeaten streak has now been extended to four games, with three victories and a draw, and while recording their fifth unbeaten run against table leaders Johor Darul Ta'zim FC will not be easy, they will also be looking to avoid dropping all points in this encounter.

Away from home, they've delivered an amazing performance, going unbeaten in three games with two victories and a draw, but one issue has been their poor defense, which has conceded five goals with no clean sheet shown.

They are now in second place with 16 points, level on points with third-place Selangor FC, and 5 points behind first place.
