DPMM vs Young Lions Prediction: Battle of poor teams

This clash for round 15 of the Singapore Premier League is taking place at Jalan Besar Stadium and features DPMM going up against Young Lions. Both teams are coming into this match in bad form, as neither of them has been victorious in any of their last five contests leading up to this one.

DPMM - DLLLL

After suffering a 0-2 loss to Albirex Niigata in their most recent match in the Singapore Premier League, DPMM will be hoping for a better showing here. During that game, DPMM had a 40% possession rate, while Albirex Niigata had a 60% possession rate. DPMM attempted 10 goals, but only one of them was on target, while Albirex Niigata attempted 25 goals, of which nine were on target. In that game, Albirex Niigata's goals came from Tadanari Lee in the 41st minute and Shodai Yokoyama in the 52nd minute. In recent times, games played against DPMM have typically been exciting ones, with a lot of goalmouth action anticipated. In their most recent six matches, both teams combined for a total of 22 goals (equating to an average of 3.67 goals per game), with DPMM scoring 9 of these goals. DPMM enter this game having accumulated 11 points in a total of 14 contests, which places them in the eighth rank in the league standings.

Young Lions - LLLLL

Young Lions and their supporters will be hoping for a better outcome this time after suffering a 4-1 defeat at the hands of Lion City in their most recent Singapore League contest played away from home. In that game, Lion City held control of the ball 61 percent of the time, while Young Lions only managed to get it 39 percent of the time. Despite this, Lion City attempted 13 shots, with just six of them hitting the target. On the other side, Young Lions attempted seven shots but only managed to hit their target three times. In that game, the goals for Lion City were scored by Kan Kobayashi, who scored an own goal in the seventeenth minute; Shawal Anuar in the thirty-third minute; Abdul Rasaq in the forty-third minute; and Maxime Lestienne in the fifty-three minute. The lone goal for the Young Lions, scored by Jun Kobayashi in the 86th minute, was ultimately not enough. According to the statistics, the Young Lions have conceded goals in six of their most recent six matches, allowing their opponents to score 15 goals in total. Due to the fact that they have only five points out of a possible 42, the away team is now in last place in the standings heading into this match.
