Sabah

WWLDLL

Sabah will be hoping to bounce back here following the 0-2 Premyer Liqasi losing effort in their last game against Zira.

Raphael Alemão (50') and Salifou Soumah (52') scored for Zira.

Fixtures with Sabah have tended to be entertaining affairs of late with a lot of goalmouth action expected. Over their past 6 clashes, a grand total of 20 goals have flown in for both sides combined (at an average of 3.33 goals per game) with 11 of them being chalked up by Sabah.

St. Patrick's Athletic

LWDWWD

In the game prior to this, St. Patrick's Athletic drew 1-1 in the Premier Division match with Galway United.

In that match, St. Patrick's Athletic had 58% possession and 3 shots on goal with 2 of them on target. The only player to score for St. Patrick's Athletic was Jason McClelland (37'). For their opponents, Galway United got 11 attempts on goal with 4 of them on target. Ed McCarthy (53') scored for Galway United.

Looking at their form, and St. Patrick's Athletic have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 9 goals in total. In defence, St. Patrick's Athletic certainly have room for improvement. We will have to see whether or not that trend can be sustained into this next match.

🗞️ Team News: Sabah

Ayaz Guliyev (Shoulder injury) and Vincent Thill (Knee injury) are unavailable for Sabah boss Krunoslav Rendulić.

In our view, Sabah will possibly kick off with a 4-2-3-1 system in the match, beginning the first half with Yusif Imanov, Amin Seydiyev, Sofian Chakla, Jon Irazabal, Bojan Letic, Abdulakh Khaybulaev, Elvin Jamalov, Kaheem Parris, Jesse Sekidika, Joy-Lance Mickels and Pavol Safranko.

ℹ️ Team News: St. Patrick's Athletic

We’re of the thinking that Saints seem most likely to play in a 4-3-3 formation, going with Joseph Anang, Axel Sjoeberg, Joe Redmond, Tom Grivosti, Anthony Breslin, Chris Forrester, Romal Palmer, Jamie Lennon, Zack Elbouzedi, Mason Melia and Jake Mulraney.

💡 Prediction

We feel that in this game, Sabah can and should have the majority of the possession and should be able to turn a few of their chances into goals.

At the other end, St. Patrick's Athletic won’t find it easy to find the back of the net although we do think it’s probable that they will be managing to get on the scoresheet as well here.

Therefore, we are anticipating a 3-1 win for Sabah at the end of the 90 minutes.
