After a disappointing season, which saw them lose the SPL title to Albirex Niigata for the second consecutive season, the Sailors will be out to console their fans by winning this tournament.

Tampines Rovers

The visitors have had a great run in this competition, with two wins in their last five games. Tampines Rover head here after their share of the spoils against SPL runner-up Lion City in the opening leg of the semifinals. The Stags, who missed out on the title following their run of five games with just a win, will strive to win the Singapore Cup.

Tampines Rovers will be desperate to make up for their poor performance in the league as they set their sights on winning the Singapore Cup.

Expert Betting Tips

Over their previous twenty meetings, Tampines Rovers have won seven while Lion City have recorded seven wins and six games ending in a tie. The first leg proved both teams were ready to battle it out for the final. Lion City were let down by the display of their experienced goalkeeper, Izman Mahbud, who conceded some questionable goals against Tampines Rovers. Both teams have what it takes to reach the final, and we will rather focus on goals here. We expect to see more than a goal before the break for 1.87.

Both teams might settle for another draw at the break for 2.57.

Tampines Rovers are our favorite pick here as Lion City have been juggling competitions in recent weeks, and we are sure it will tell on them here; bet on an away win in either half for 1.80.

Good luck!
