The Turtles recent match against Sabah FA on the road saw them rescue a point in a 2:2 draw thanks to Sony Nordé's equalizer in second-half stoppage time. However, that left them with a bitter taste in their mouths as this extended their winless run to five matches, where four losses and a draw have been recorded.
Prior to that, they were trampled on by Sri Pahang FC at home as they succumbed to a 2:1 loss, and this didn't come as a surprise even though they had the favorite tag on their backs, as things have been a bit erratic for them this season and they have yet to live up to expectations.
Their performance at home has been exceptional, as they have only suffered one loss in their last six matches, picking up four wins, a draw, and a loss. It's also worth mentioning that they were on a four-match winning streak at home before their disappointing loss to Sri Pahang FC.
They presently occupy 8th place with 14 points, level on points with Penang FC in 9th, while their bid for a 7th place finish is hampered by a three-point deficit, making collecting all three points crucial.
