Young Lions vs Tampines tips and predictions

Young Lions price just looks too big in this clash

As the away side, Tampines are heavily favoured in the betting but they've occasionally shown that they're not impregnable at the back. Common sense suggests that when these sides meet they are bound to produce some goals.

If the home side is locked in to this huge challenge they are capable of overachieving.

Young Lions's chances might be hanging on a thread in quick-time. But they've posted some good wins. The hosts have got 1 home wins from their last 3 games. And the travelling side has pulled up short at times. They've lost 13 of their recent 20 matches on the road. You might have heard that backing Tampines to win is the bet of the year; but that might just end up as nothing more than hyperbole.

Young Lions should expect extended periods of play without possession. If the hosts can grind out a win it will be due to the confidence they gained from their recent performances. These home players have enjoyed a purple patch on their own turf. They scored three or more times in 1 of their recent 3 home matches.

Tampines haven't been enjoying life on their rivals' soil. They've actually let in an average of 3.3 goals in their last 20 matches away from their own turf. And their problems aren't exclusively in the first-third of the field. The attacking form shown by the visitors has been short of quality. They averaged just 1.7 goals in their last 3 matches.

It might end up in tears but the home side can take some reasons to believe into the match.

The sportsbooks believe that both sides can score despite the undeniable favouritism for Tampines. However, the odds-against for the BTTS No looks slightly more tempting on this occasion.
