Protectors foray into Bull's territory

The Protectors look set to take on a stubborn and foraging bull as the latter seeks to further its recent good run at Home. Our boys have maintained a stranglehold on the leadership and is determined to make it 8 wins in a row after tonight's game.

Match preview


The Bulls have done remarkably well in their second full season since their readmission into the league, where some stirring performances have been matched by the usual concoction of youth, vigour and strength. Never mind the new stadium, the fact that every Gombak home game is a near full house speaks volumes. Recent form also suggests things are looking very much on the up, where the team has garnered a total of ten points out of a possible fifteen, with SAFFC being put to the sword.

The Protectors meanwhile, have maintained their stranglehold on the leadership, as they did just enough to beat a resilient Liaoning side 2-1. It had been the Protectors’ eighth win in a row in league and cup. On the other hand, Gombak had already signalled their intent, by giving the Koreans a 6-1 walloping. The defence stood well and held firm, as the attack conjured up some magical moments in front of goal. The last encounter between these two sides concluded in a rather one-sided affair. 4-0 the final score and the forwards simply ran riot at Jurong West on the night. However, the likes of Precious would be out to prove they would be no mugs.

Though the Protectors may not come out of second gear in most matches, they have got what it takes to win.
