As part of the seventh round of the Singapore Premier League, Lion City will host Tanjong Pagar. The match will take place on Sunday, July 7, starting at 12:00 PM Central European Time. Experts from the Dailysports team have prepared a forecast for this encounter.
Lion City
The team currently leads the Singapore Premier League standings. In five matches this season, they have accumulated 13 out of a possible 15 points and have one game in hand. Lion City boasts the best defense among all teams, a key factor in their current success. They have conceded just four goals, half the number of the second-best team in this category. Additionally, Lion City has a strong attack with 17 goals scored, the third-best among the nine Premier League teams. Lion City's form is excellent, with four wins and one draw.
Tanjong Pagar
The team is in the lower part of the Singapore Premier League standings. They have also played five matches this season and currently have four points, placing them seventh. Their goal difference is notably worse than Lion City's. Tanjong has scored only six goals, the lowest in the league, while conceding 14 times, the fourth-worst in the league. Considering there are nine teams in the league, this makes their defensive record mediocre. Moreover, Tanjong Pagar's form is poor, with one win, one draw, and three losses in their last five matches.
