Tanjong Pagar vs Geylang International Prediction: We are tipping the home side to add salt to the visitors' injury

Having gone five games without a breakthrough, Tanjong Pagar will strive for maximum points when they host Geylang International at the Toa Payoh Stadium.

Tanjong Pagar (8th)

Last five games: LLLLL

The Jaguars suffered another blow when they lost (2-1) against a strong Tampines Rovers team. After a quiet time at the break, the second half breathed life when Tampines Rovers scored twice, and Tanjong responded once. The Jaguars looked more convincing and even got a goal against the home team.

Tanjong Pagar have been struggling to win games this season and have lost thirteen in their last eighteen games. Since their scrappy victory against Young Lions, Tanjong Pagar have lost four consecutive matches. In those matches, they conceded twenty times while scoring seven. Tanjong's major problem lies in their defence, as they have conceded more than a goal over their last ten games. Tanjong Pagar have won two and lost six at home this season.

Geylang International (5th)

Last five games: LWWDL

The Eagles bowed to their first defeat in three games when winless Hougang United scored twice to cart away the maximum point. Geylang International started the game well but were reduced to ten men just before the break. The visitors took advantage and struck seconds before the final whistle and got another goal in the 86th minute. It’s evident that Geylang are missing their most important player, V. Bezecourt, who have scored in three consecutive matches and will miss their next game after being forced out in the encounter against Tampines Rovers. Geylang International are far from achieving their target this season as they trail third-placed Lion City by sixteen points.

Geylang have won three, drawn once and lost four away from home this season.
