Lion City vs Brunei DPMM Prediction: The hosts can’t afford to lose to a struggling opponent

The Sailors will be keen to keep up with league leaders by securing the maximum points when they face off against Brunei DPMM at the Bishan Stadium. The guests have been below par lately and must be at their best to get anything away from this game. 

Lion City (2nd)

Last five games: WWLWW

The Sailors head here with a comfortable victory as they scored seven times against Hougang United. Since their heaviest defeat against Tampines Rovers, Lion City have won back-to-back games, with a (0-6) victory over Lion City away from home and (7-1) victory over Hougang United. The win, which witnessed seven goals, was one of their best displays since the start of the season. Lion City have been up and running this season, heading here with eight victories, a defeat and a stalemate. Lion City have scored thirty-seven and conceded twelve goals since the start of the season. Lion City have won all but once in their last five games on their ground. 

Brunei DPMM (7th)

Last five matches: LLLDL

James McAllister's men have struggled in recent weeks, heading here without a win in seven games. Their defence has let them down this season, conceding twenty-one goals. 

The guests have lost against teams they usually defeat, and this campaign has been going from bad to worse. More recently, they lost (1-3) on their ground against Young Lions as they suffered their fifth game of the season. 

They have now let in more goals in recent games than they have since the start of the season. Brunei DPMM have lost three and won twice on the road this season. 

Expert Betting Tips

Over their previous twenty games, Lion City have won twelve while Brunei DPMM have recorded seven victories and drawn once. The hosts have lost their momentum and they look lost at the back. They can hardly conjure a few passes together and have lost four of their last five games. At the same time, the guests are fighting in every game to return to the top of the log. We expect the Sailors to secure the maximum points away from home against their uninspiring opponent. 

The guests will possibly get a goal or two here, but they are expected even to concede more. 

Lion City will get off to a great start.

Good luck!
