Match 1: Gang Bintang v Gracebandy Co.
(12PM - 2PM)
(12PM - 2PM)
With the new addition to their current squad during the controversial window transfer period; Afiq John and Mohd Hafidz, Gang Bintang has prevailed easily against Joker Prodigy FC who barely managed to appear with only six players of their team, and that includes their goalie as well. Perhaps with these new members of their team, Gang Bintang would have a chance to step up their bid to defend the title with improved team play, skills and power that their new players have to offer. Against Gracebandy Co., they should keep up and try to improve their performance in order to maintain their current position in the league and continue their winning streak for as long as possible.
As for Gracebandy Co., the results of their previous matches have been a topsy-turvy ride on the roller-coaster. After their last draw against BRB, their results have been going down the hill with losses against both Subang Rascals and their "sister" team Salibandy Co. But still Gracebandy Co. has shown a lot of potential and promises to offer for this league. They might even give Gang Bintang a hard time in this upcoming week.
Players to watch (Gang Bintang): Khalid, Jethro, Illyaz, Bob, Hafidz, Afiq John
Players to watch (Gracebandy Co.): Gerard, Philip, Sheeda, Mervin
Prediction: Gang Bintang to come out with victory against Gracebandy Co.
Match 2: Bangi Rusty Blade v Joker Prodigy FC
(2PM - 4PM)
With the departure of their founder and mentor, Hafidz and a few other players, Bangi Rusty Blade is expected to go through a very hard time throughout the remainder of this season. However, they have put up a decent performance when going up against GMI White Knights, albeit luck wasn't on their side when BRB could only manage to grab a draw against them. Hopefully after the holidays, the new BRB under the leadership of Faz could rise up and redeem their honor against Joker Prodigy FC, in which they have lost against during their previous encounter. In addition, they have appointed national team manager, Suresh Subramaniam as their interim coach for the remaining of the season. One must expect to see better and improved team plays for this new Bangi Rusty Blade squad.
The team that has been in a total woe due to the lack of commitment from their players must muster up everything that they have in order to keep competing in this league. Joker Prodigy must ensure that they will never pull-out from a game ever again, as what happened when they were supposed to go up against KLIUC Griffins during matchweek 10 of this season. Players such as Erry, Amir, and Hazwan should call upon their team's discipline for this match and the upcoming ones. And this should be done immediately.
Players to watch (Bangi Rusty Blades) : Malik, Faz
Players to watch (Joker Prodigy): Ery, Amir, Hazwan
Prediction: Unless Joker Prodigy could come up with a surprise, Bangi Rusty Blade will have their revenge for their last encounter.
Match 3: KLIUC Griffins v Subang Rascals
(4PM - 6PM)
After a very disappointing tie against GMI Blackwings, now Griffins would have to defend against the ever invincible titans of this season, Subang Rascals. Against all odds, KLIUC Griffins should work thoroughly on their defense and play with their hearts out in order to play against the Rascals. Careless mistakes such as the one that had caused them the match against Blackwings should not be repeated. As a team that shows a lot of promise and potential, the Griffins could even give a hard time for the team that hasn't been defeated this season. But that is only if they could get back on form and show the same tenacity that they have earlier this season.
Subang Rascals, "the Mighty Rascals", nothing much could be said about this team, really. Except that they are absolutely on a roll in this season and seem to be almost omnipotent with the gravity of their performance in every matches that they have played. Against the improving Griffins, experienced players of their team should come up with something in order to sustain their tenacious opponent in this match. They might want to improve their record from their last clash against the Griffins, where they managed to score 14 goals during that match.
Players to watch (KLIUC Griffins): Adi, Naufal, Mat, Medi, Izwan, Aiz
Players to watch (Subang Rascals): Kamal, Sjaiful, Dennis, Henrik, Snake
Prediction: Subang Rascals to tighten their grip on the league's trophy for this season.
Match 4: GMI White Knights v KLIUC Hornets
(6PM - 8PM)
"The most energetic team in the league" is what they are well-known of. With swift and strong players, they are definitely one of the teams predicted to reach the top four position in the league by the end of this season. With most of their players able release shots from the center court, they are definitely a force to be reckoned with in this league, and most definitely will give a tough time for the Hornets. They would be desperate to grab a victory against KLIUC Hornets in order for them to sustain their current ranking in the league.
As for KLIUC Hornets, having suffered a defeat against Subang Rascals during matchweek 11 will urge them to come out as the victors in this second encounter against the White Knights. With the leaving of Afiq John to join Gang Bintang, the current players of KLIUC Hornets must step up with better team play quality to fill in the gap left by him. Perhaps with the new promising player; Zul, Hornets might still have a chance to compete in the Super Cup should they be able to turn the tides against GMI White Knights in this upcoming matchweek. That is to say, they are able to play effectively as a team against the hellbent White Knights who are also eager to seek another valuable two points for their team.
Players to watch (GMI White Knights): Amai, Shahir, Bard, Penang
Players to watch (KLIUC Hornets): Azim, Azmill, Taqi, Muiz, Yoyo, Dyla
Prediction: This is a tough one to decide, but the final whistle might just end with a victory for KLIUC Hornets.
Match 5: GMI Blackwings v Salibandy Co.
(8 PM - 10PM)
Considering their results so far in this season, GMI Blackwings has surprised teams such as Hornets and Griffins by bringing them down with a tie. With most of their players barely started joining floorball for the past few months, this team has a very bright future ahead of them should they continue their pace and keep improving from time to time. Based on their last performance against KLIUC Griffins which ended with a draw, GMI Blackwings has improved much since their last encounter against Salibandy Co., thus a very fierce match between both teams can be expected on this upcoming week. However, the setback could be the departure of their coach, Alissa Rode, who has returned to Singapore. She has lent many great advises to the young Blackwings. Now, it is up to Aizuddin Akmal, who has been in Blackwings' bench every now and then, to carry the coaching task.
After a triumph against Gracebandy Co. during the previous matchweek, Salibandy Co. would be eager to continue their on-form performance and with players such as Terence, Alvin, Kelson and Song Sing, they should be able to have a second victory against GMI Blackwings. Added with their tremendous shooting ability, victory would be very close for them to grasp. Still, constant vigilance should be kept when going up against the fellows from GMI as they have improved splendidly in just a short period of time. What I can say is this is going to be one hell of a match.
Players to watch (GMI Blackwings): Zizie, Ejal, Azizi
Players to watch (Salibandy Co.): Alvin, Terence, Kelson, Song Sing
Prediction: A victory for Salibandy Co., but not without a decent retaliation from GMI Blackwings
