Matchday 2 opens with a rejuvenated Tanjong Pagar United looking to capitalise on an out-of-sorts Brunei DPMM side at the Jurong East Stadium, with the latter having lost three of their last four games. The action concludes with a blockbuster clash as an in-form Geylang International side welcome Lion City Sailors to the Jalan Besar Stadium in a high-stakes encounter that could prove crucial in the title race.
