Hougang United vs Tanjong Pagar Prediction: The hosts will be at the top of their game here

Last five games: DDDLL

The hosts have now gone six games without a breakthrough, sharing the spoils in three matches and losing three times. More recently, Hougang United lost against Albirex Niigata on the road. After leading for over an hour in the game and five minutes to the stoppage time, Hougang United conceded twice as their opponent secured a deserved (2-1) win at home. They have shown signs of improvement in front of goal but are yet to address their porous defence. Hougang United have let in thirteen goals over their previous six games while finding the back of the net ten times. 

Hougang United have picked up sixteen points from a combined fifty-four, scoring twenty-nine and conceding forty-six. 

The Cheetahs have won twice, drawn four, and lost two over their last eight home games. 

Last five matches: DLLLLL

The Jaguars' terrible form continued as they suffered a devastating (0-5) defeat in front of their home supporters. Tanjong Pagar failed to impress on their home ground for the umpteenth time this season. The Jaguars march here with another defeat at home, conceding five times against Geylang International while failing to find the back of the net. Tanjong Pagar have now lost four consecutive matches and have not won in ten games. 

Tanjong Pagar have let in the most goals in the division (62) and have lost thirteen times in seventeen starts to the season.

They have picked up a point over their last eight away games this season. 

Over their previous twenty meetings, Tanjong Pagar have won six times while Hougang United have recorded four wins and ten games ending in a stalemate. Unfortunately, the guests are yet to win any of their last ten games and they’ll be keen to return to winning ways. Tanjong Pagar have conceded the most goals this campaign and there are no signs of improvement in recent matches. They’ll face off against a Hougang team who almost won against Albirex Niigata and scored first against Lion City. Those are great performances, and we believe they are way better than the guests; we expect them to get a halftime victory here for 1.98.

Hougang United might even get more than a goal before the break for 2.28.

We expect to see more goals after the break for 1.81.

Good luck!
