Lion City vs Balestier Central Prediction: The Sailors will exert dominance over the Tigers

The Tigers are gearing up for a thrilling encounter against the Sailors at the Bishan Stadium on Sunday. The hosts' coach has emphasized his plan for each tournament, and despite juggling three competitions at a go, they won’t lower their standard against the guests. 

Lion City

The Sailors began their journey with a commanding display against Tanjong Pagar. They defeated their opponent (4-1) at home as Bart Ramselaar scored a brace while Akran Azman and Abdul Rasaq were on the scoreboard. This is their first game in the competition, as they have been involved in other tournaments. 

Lion City are the defending champions, and they’ll be keen to retain the title this time. They currently sit in second place, despite playing just one game, and they’ll be eager to win the group.

Balestier Central

The Tigers began their journey with a (4-5) victory over Geylang International on the road. However, they surrendered to a (1-2) home loss against Pathum United on their home turf. It was a disappointing result as they couldn’t take advantage of their opponent, who were reduced to ten men in the 25th minute. 

Balestier Khalsa have not been themselves this season, however, they’ll strive to at least get something away from this game. 

Peter de Roo's men have won four, lost five times, and drawn twice at home this season. 

Expert Betting Tips

Lion City have won seven while Balestier Central have won two and a game ending in a tie over their previous ten meetings. The Sailors are doing well for themselves this season and will be determined to win this trophy. They are presently in the semifinals of the Asian Championship and leading the Singapore Premier League. They won’t treat this tournament with levity, and I expect them to exert dominance over their guests.

This is a clean win for Lion City, but I have a feeling the guests will at least find the back of the net; bet on home win and BTTS for 2.20 at (1xbet).

This fixture will be played without any burden of resting players for the Sailors, and I expect them to win and score more than a goal at the break for 1.80 at (Betway).

This game will produce more than a goal in both halves for 2.40 at (Bet365).

Good luck!
