Shan United vs Southern Myanmar Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

Reining National League champions Shan United sit 4th in the table after 9-games but will be hoping that a win at home to struggling Southern Myanmar proves enough to move them up one place on Tuesday. The visitors arrive with just 4pts to their name and only sit above bottom side Chin United on goal difference but did managed to secure 2pts from their two games against Shan United last season and will be hopeful of avoiding defeat on Tuesday.

Over 2.5 Goals to be Scored

• Over 2.5 goals have been scored in 4 of Shan United’s last 6 matches.
• Over 2.5 goals have been scored in 4 of Southern Myanmar’s last 6 matches.
• Shan United have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 outings and Southern Myanmar haven’t kept a clean sheet in 2020.

Shan United claimed their second title in three seasons last year but have found the 2020 campaign to be even more competitive. Tuesday’s hosts sit third in the table and head into the match on the back of two wins, two draws, and two defeats from their last six matches in all competitions, which is still enough to earn them the title of form favourites.

We’re expecting goals from this game as four of Shan United’s and four of Southern Myanmar’s last six outings have produced over 2.5 goals, which suggests we are in with a good chance of seeing at least 3-goals scored on Tuesday. The hosts have only kept one clean sheet in their last six attempts and their guests have failed to keep their opponents from scoring in any of their last six matches, which is why we have backed a final scoreline that sees both teams scoring.

Shan United to Win 2-1

• Shan United have scored 2 or more goals in 4 of their last 7 league games.
• Southern Myanmar have conceded 2 or more goals in 4 of their last 6 league games.
• Shan United have won 3 of their last 6 league games while Southern Myanmar have lost 4 of their last 6.

Shan United have outperformed Southern Myanmar in all departments so far this season and we have backed the hosts to claim a 2-1 win on Tuesday. The hosts have scored 2 or more goals in four of their last seven league games, while Southern Myanmar have let in 2 or more goals in four of their last six National League matches.

Shan United have won three of their last six league games and Myanmar have lost four of their last six, adding further weight to our prediction for a home win this Tuesday. The hosts have a good record against the visitors, winning ten of their last eighteen encounters, which includes victories in three of the pairs’ last six head to heads.
