Brunei DPMM vs Balestier Central Prediction: We anticipate a solid display from the guests with goals at both ends

The SPL continues as Brunei DPMM square off against Balestier Central International in their attempt to bounce back from their recent defeat at the Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium on Friday. Both teams have been pretty disappointing lately and we are unsure if a winner will emerge here tomorrow. 

Brunei DPMM (8th)

Last five matches: LWLLL

James McAllister's men have struggled with form since the second stanza of the tournament began. Recently, they suffered another loss on the road against a struggling Tanjong Pagar. It was a disastrous game which saw them concede three times and failed to find the back of the net. They pretty much did well in their cup game against Tampines Rovers a few days ago. Brunei DPMM have lost four games in their last five matches heading here with a defeat against the Jaguars. 

Brunei DPMM have suffered ten defeats this campaign and can’t afford to drop points on their ground; Brunei DPMM have now let in forty-seven goals in twenty-one starts to the season. 

Brunei DPMM have won once, lost five, and drawn five games at home this season. 

Balestier Central (5th)

Last five games. LWLLL

The Tigers bowed to another loss in the league, this time against Young Lions on their home turf. Balestier Central controlled the game and had the opportunity to secure the maximum points; however, they were ineffective and unlucky against their opponent. Scoring twice from six shots at goal and hitting the post twice denied them the opportunity to return to winning ways. 

The Tigers' form nosedived as they march here with a win across their last eight matches. Their second-highest scorer, Ismail Sassi, has left the club, and they’ll miss his service tomorrow. Balestier presently occupy the fifth place on the log, and anything but the maximum points will see them drop down. 

Peter de Roo's men have won three, lost four times, and drawn three on the road this season. 

Interesting Facts

Brunei DPMM's last six matches have ended in more than two goals.

Expert Betting Tips

Brunei DPMM have not been themselves since the second stanza of the season, even though they usually create more than enough chances. The hosts have had twenty-seven shots in their last two games, scoring just two goals. Their conversion rate have been pretty terrible, and they’ll strive to do better this time.

This clash is so crucial to both teams as they expect to retun to winning ways in the league. Balestier Central showed character in their last Cup game, and I hope they will pick up from there. The guests are my favourite pick here, and I think they’ll win or draw and get a BTTS for 1.70 at (Betway).

I also think this game will be an open encounter with more than a goal before the break for 1.70 at (Bet365).

The guests might likely win, as the hosts have managed just a win on their home turf this campaign.

Good luck!
