Starting with the hosts, Kelantan FC's quest for silverware this season crumbled into dust as Johor Darul Ta'zim's formidable might ravaged them in the Malaysia Cup round of 16. A shattering 10-0 defeat on the road marked the epitaph of their ambitions, contributing to a commanding aggregate score of 15-1.
This catastrophe plummets their spirits to unprecedented depths, magnified by their previous 8-0 trouncing by Terengganu FC on their own turf.
The agony extends further, encompassing a five-game losing streak across all competitions. Amid this debacle, they conceded a staggering 30 goals, a testament to their frail defensive ranks, worst in the league. Having let in 76 goals over 20 matches, their position as the league's leading defensive struggler isn't surprising.
The standings reflect their plight, occupying 13th place with a meager 8 points in hand, entrenched within the relegation zone. Their shared points with Kelantan United FC in 12th place only highlight the looming threat of demotion.

On the flip side, Selangor FC experienced their own setback in the Malaysia Cup round of 16, suffering a 2-1 home defeat against PDRM FC. However, their commanding 4-1 victory in the first leg bolstered their aggregate advantage, clinching them a quarter-final berth with a 5-3 aggregate score.
Before this stumble, the Red Giants showcased their mettle in the league, orchestrating an authoritative 4-0 conquest against a ten-man Negeri Sembilan FC, securing valuable away points.
Currently basking in a two-match league-winning streak, they eye the prospect of extending it to three, facing an opponent marked by erratic form since the season's inception.
Positioned in 2nd place with 46 points, Selangor FC holds a six-point buffer over 3rd placed Kedah Darul Aman FC. Yet, the league leaders Johor Darul Ta'zim FC, perched 14 points ahead, seem a distant star. While title contention appears akin to clutching at straws, Selangor FC maintains its steadfast march in pursuit of glory.
