vs Prediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Young Lions have not yet played this season in the Singapore Premier League, so the picture is built on last season's outings. The last six were disappointing: a 0-3 defeat away to Albirex Niigata S in the most recent match played, a 2-2 home draw with Geylang International before that, and further back another 0-1 defeat away to Albirex, a heavy 1-8 loss away to Tampines Rovers, a 0-2 defeat away to Home United and, to open the run, the only win, 1-0 away at Tanjong Pagar. Geylang International also come from a previous campaign worth reviewing: in the most recent match played, a 3-4 home defeat to Balestier Khalsa, a 2-2 draw away at Young Lions before that, and further back another 2-3 home defeat to Balestier Khalsa, a 0-3 home loss to Home United, a 2-1 home win over Tanjong Pagar and, at the end of the run, a 3-4 defeat away to Tampines Rovers. The head to head between the two sides is close: the most recent meeting was the 2-2 draw on 9 May, a 1-1 draw with reversed venue before that, further back two wins for Geylang International, 1-3 and 1-2, and further still a 4-0 win for Geylang again with reversed venue, down to a 3-0 win for Geylang International in the earliest meeting. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
