Negeri Sembilan FC vs Kuching City FC Prediction: One Last Dance At Home For Negeri

Negeri Sembilan FC will welcome Kuching City FC to the Tuanku Abdul Rahman Stadium in the 26th round of the Malaysian Super League.

Let's have a look at the latest Malaysia Super League predictions between Negeri Sembilan FC vs. Kuching City FC, match facts and betting odds for you to consider!

Negeri Sembilan FC

Form: WWLLL

In their latest match, Negeri Sembilan orchestrated a masterful performance on the road, leaving ten-man Kelantan United FC scratching their heads in a commanding 4-0 triumph fueled by Barathkumar Ramaloo's brace as the pièce de résistance.

Negeri are riding on the back of a two-match winning streak where they've also upheld two consecutive clean sheets in the process, and this sudden resurgence follows a grueling twelve-match winless run (L7 D5), a run that impeded their ascent in the standings.

With 27 points accumulated from 25 matches played, Negeri Sembilan sit ninth in the Malaysian Super League standings, a mere three points ahead of tenth-placed Penang, and are only positioned for a ninth-place finish.

Kuching City FC

Form: LLDDL

Kuching City FC, on the other hand, weren't able to taste victory in their latest match against Kuala Lumpur as they succumbed to a narrow 3-2 defeat at home, which extended their winless run at the Sarawak State Stadium to thirteen matches (L9 D4).

A wretched league performance has been the catalyst for Kuching City FC's downfall this season. Since a 2-1 win over Kelantan away from home at the first time asked in the season opener on February 25th, Kuching have not won a single match since that eventful day, as they are currently on a 24 winless rout (L18 D6) topping the charts of the longest winless run this season, and nothing much can be expected from them in this one on the final match day of the season.

With 9 points collected from 25 matches played, Kuching City FC occupy 13th place within the relegation play-offs, one point ahead of the relegation zone and five points adrift of safety.
