Home United FC are on a 3 match losing streak, and are desperate to secure a win this coming Monday. They host the visiting Woodlands Wellington FC at the Clementi Stadium. This is only the second time that Home United has played at our new home ground of Clementi Stadium. The first time we played there, we comfortably beat Balestier Khalsa FC 3-0. With Home United languishing near the lower accolades of the S-League table, a win is badly needed to climb up the table.
Woodlands will prove difficult opponents as they have beaten SAFFC 3-2 recently and will no doubt have confidence coming into this match.
Home United can expect a tough match. Come catch it live at the Clementi Stadium this coming Monday. Kickoff at 1945hrs.

Glory Glory! Young Protectors Emerge Champions!
Home United FC youth teams once again brought honours to the Club. The 2009 Mayor's Challenge Shield was held on Sunday at Tampines SAFRA.
Our HUFC's Whitley Centre U-13 Team A and Ang Mo Kio Centre U-15 Team A emerged Champions in their respective age-group.
Our youth teams have led the way in achieving the silverwares, so let's hope our senior team can do the same! Congratulations to the winners !!!
Will the big guns return to fire up our Protectors ?
Home United FC lost their last match 0-1 to Albirex Niigata, as they failed to climb out of its slump. Rested in that match were regulars, Lionel Lewis, Peres De Oliveira and Itimi Dickson.
Will they return tomorrow to face the inexperienced Young Lions ? Can they ignite Home United"s title bid? Plenty of questions to be answered ! Come on down to support our Protectors !
Jalan Besar Stadium, Kick-off 1945hrs !

Protectors Look For Asian Comforts
Home United FC return to AFC Cup action on Tuesday evening against Thai Champions Provincial Electrical Authority at the Supachalasai Stadium in Bangkok.
Home United, struggling in its domestic campaign with only a win from 4 matches, looks for better success in ASIA. Home United won their first AFC Cup match a week ago at the Jalan Besar Stadium, beating Vietnamese Champions Becamex Binh Duong FC 2-1.
Valery Heik returns to take his place in central defence, and his presence will prove vital to snub the attacking threat of PEA's Brazilian striker Falcao.
Can our Protectors ignite the flickering flame ?

Can Protectors Breach Gombak's Mean Defence ?
Home United FC returns to domestic action when they host Gombak United FC at the Jalan Besar Stadium this Friday in this week's "Live" telecast match!
Can our Protectors break the league's meanest defence ? Gombak United has conceded zero goals so far in 3 matches. In Kengne Ludovick, Norikazu Murakami and Peres De Oliveira, Home United have the fire power to blast open a mean Gombak defence.
Come on Protectors, lets do it!!!

HUFC 2:1 Binh Duong FC
Home United FC opened its AFC Cup Campaign with a victory over Vietnamese Champions Binh Duong FC at the Jalan Besar Stadium. Goals from Juma'at Jantan on the stroke of half-time and Kengne Ludovick in the second half, gave our Protectors a 2-0 lead before Binh Duong's Brazilian born striker, Kesley Alves hit one back in the 74th minute.
The remaining minutes were nervy for our Home United faithful, as Binh Duong FC threatened to equalise on several occasions. Most notably Binh Duong's other Brazilian Helio Da Silva, who unleashed a volley towards goal. Lionel Lewis was beaten but Captain Marvel S.Subramani was on hand to clear the goal bound shot.
In the closing minutes, Home United could have added a third but Shi Jiayi's shot was superbly saved by the Vietnamese custodian.
3 points in the bag and Home United FC next travels to Bangkok to face PEA FC. PEA FC won their first match against Club Valencia 3-1 in Maldives.

1-3 loss to SAFFC ! Not good enough.........
Home United FC suffered a 1-3 defeat at the hands of title rivals SAFFC at the Choa Chu Kang Stadium on Wednesday evening.
New signing Norikazu Murakami made his debut for the Protectors when he came on at half-time for the unimpressive Itimi Dickson. He immediately repaid Home's faith by earning a penalty which Shi Jiayi converted to level the scores.
SAFFC did not wait long to take the lead again when Daniel Bennett scored to make ot 2-1.
Home United were given a great opportunity to nick at least a point when Ahmad Latiff was sent off with 15 minutes left in the match. To Home's die hard fans, it was disappointing as they failed to find the equalizer. SAFFC added further misery when John Wilkinson netted in the last minute to give SAFFC a 3-1 win.
Given it's still early days in this season's championship, Home United will look to quickly close the 5 points gap. They can ill afford to let SAFFC run away, or else they could be staring at another barren season......
