The home side will be looking to build on the 4-0 victory they registered over Vietnam at the same venue in a 2027 Asian Cup qualifier in June 2025. All four goals were scored in the second half, with Joao Figueiredo, Rodrigo Holgado, Lawrence Corbib-Org, and Dion Cools scoring a goal each to help their nation claim all three points.

Singapore, meanwhile, claimed maximum points with a 2-1 away win over Bangladesh in the Asian Cup qualifiers. They went into the break in the lead thanks to Song Ui-Young's 45th-minute strike, while Ahmad bin Fandi doubled their lead in the 58th minute. Rakib Hossain halved the deficit midway through the second half.

Malaysia vs Singapore Prediction

Malaysia will face their neighbors, hoping to make the most of having home advantage.

Singapore, for their part, have won their last two games on the bounce. They have lost just one of the last five head-to-head games, winning two of those matches.

The geographical proximity of both nations means they will each go all out for the win for national pride, and the game could be played at a high intensity. We expect the home side to claim a narrow win with goals at both ends.
