Sabah FA

Form: WLLWD

With regards to their 2:1 defeat to Kuala Lumpur City FC in the Malaysia FA Cup quarterfinals, it was out in the open that they couldn't deal with such a costly setback, as their response afterwards turned out to be cries for intervention to get back on track, going a further two matches with losses against Kedah Darul Aman FC (2:1) and PDRM FC (1:0).

While their struggles were expected to continue in their recent match against Kelantan United FC on the road, where their form has been nothing but a disaster, they managed to put all those doubts regarding their inability to get back to winning ways to bed as a stellar performance witnessed them romp to a convincing 3:0 victory.

It's no secret that Ong Kim Swee's men will be relishing the opportunity to make their return on home turf—Likas Stadium, where their presence has been missed for almost two months now. They are unbeaten in their last seven matches, where six wins and a draw have been recorded, doing justice to their status as an unassailable force.

They presently occupy fifth place with 27 points, with their bid for a third-place finish hampered by a four-point deficit, although in the meantime they can focus their attention on overthrowing fourth-place Kedah Darul Aman FC, with whom they are separated by only one point.

Kuching City FC

Form: LDDLL

Kuching City FC, on the other hand, are also a side that is highly likely to find itself without a title this season as their run in the Malaysian FA Cup was cut short after suffering a 4:0 defeat at the hands of Penang FC in the round of 16 three months ago.

Since that disheartening loss, they went on to record three consecutive losses but managed to tone down the disappointment levels with two successive 1:1 draws against Kuala Lumpur City FC and Negeri Sembilan FC, but they were unfortunately derailed from extending that run to three matches undefeated as they slumped to a convincing 2:1 defeat at the hands of Selangor FC away from home, which was their most recent match.

With their winless run in the Super League now extended to thirteen matches, the situation is not at all looking good for Irfan Bakti Abu Salim's men at the moment, and neither does their away form, which has seen four points accumulated from seven matches. It's also worth mentioning that they are currently on a six-match winless run, picking up five losses and a draw.

They presently occupy twelfth place with 6 points, level on points with Kelantan United FC in thirteenth place, while they are only three points behind an eleventh-place finish.
