Match preview

Tanjong Pagar are the home team on the coupon but these sides share the Jurong East Stadium where Albirex’s superior class should yield a routine 'away' win.

Tanjong were a late call-up to the Singapore Premier League and their newly-assembled squad are still finding their feet.

Head coach Hairi Su’ap has former Botafogo frontman Luiz Junior to call upon but the Jaguars are definitely going to find this a tricky campaign.

They played Albirex in pre-season, losing 6-0, and probably fear another caning from a side who won the league three times in a row before finishing fourth last term.

Because they are a satellite team of the J-League side of the same name it means they have undergone a major off-season overhaul, but the outlook remains good.

The White Swans, whose oldest outfield player is just 23, battered Geylang 4-0 in their opener before twice coming from behind to draw 2-2 with Balestier Khalsa.

The Japanese youngsters should win this well.
