Albirex Niigata to Win and Over 1.5 Match Goals
Tanjong Pagar vs Albirex Niigata Predictions
- Albirex have scored two or more in seven of their nine previous matches at this venue.
- Albirex have won seven of their nine previous away matches against Tanjong.
Hosts yet to get going
It’s been a pretty unhappy start to the season for Tanjong, who’ve taken just a single point from their first two matches. Their draw at home first time up wasn’t the worst start in the world, but they failed to build on that last time out, losing by two goals to nil.
The newly promoted hosts have so far struggled to get themselves in games, especially in terms of possession. With just a 28% share of the ball at home on match-day one, they were outplayed by Lion City, while they barely had a kick when last in action.
Visitors ticking along
After winning first time out, scoring four goals in the process, Albirex Niigata avoided defeat away from home recently, drawing 2-2 against the side that currently sits 3rd in the table. Their early season efforts should leave the visitors feeling confident ahead of a match against a home side that has struggled to get going.
Having finished 4th last season, Albirex are among the big boys in this division, as their league form shows. If we dip back into last term, Friday’s visitors are unbeaten in five league matches, four of which they’ve won. They’ve conceded just three goals in those five matches, keeping three clean sheets. Such defensive form bodes well given that the hosts have been finding it tough to put their stamp on games.
Albirex to get the job done
It’s early days and Tanjong could start to improve, but based on what has happened so far, the visitors are tough to oppose. For those interested in this fixture, the best option looks to be ‘Albirex to Win & Over 1.5 Goals. The visitors have scored twice in each of their opening two league matches, as well as in four of their last five if we go back to the end of last term. Moreover, though it is going back in time a bit, Albirex have an excellent record at this venue, winning seven of their last nine away matches against Tanjong, scoring two or more in seven of those nine. A 0-2 win for the visitors might be the best option ‘Correct Score’ wise. Two of the last four renewals of this fixture (at this venue) have ended in 2-0 wins for Albirex, while the poor attacking efforts of the hosts in recent weeks point towards them struggling offensively.
