SFL 11/12 return for another exciting matchweek 10. We will be the ever anticipated clash of the season between Rascals and Bintang. Local derby between the 2 GMI team and another unpredictable slugfest coming from the league bottom half teams.
Match 1: Bangi Rusty Blade vs. Gracebandy! Co. (12PM – 2PM)
I was predicting a win for BRB last week against the defending champions Gang Bintang but the end result was very much the opposite. Is it a lost of hunger to win games or they just cannot play well as a team? No one can answer that besides BRB players alone. But a way into redemption is possible and it can start with their match against Gracebandy! As said previously, their all round play is still their best strength and they should stick with that coming into this game.
Gracebandy! Co. was totally humiliated by Subang Rascals last week losing with a mind boggling score of 2-32. This season has been a roller coaster ride for most of the bottom half team that includes Gracebandy! as well. Nobody really knows what Gracebandy! are really capable off because of their indifferent form this season. Agaist BRB this weekend, we just hope that the real Gracebandy! can show up and give the out of form BRB a run for their money.
Players to watch (Bangi Rusty Blade): Hafidz, Malik, Faz
Players to watch (Gracebandy! Co.): Gerard, Philip, Sheeda, Mervin
Prediction: BRB to get back on track and win the match.
Match 2: Salibandy! Co. vs KLIUC Hornets (2Pm – 4PM)
As what was said last week, Salibandy! are up there in the third spot because they had shown consistency all throughout the season which half of the team in the league do not have currently. With the likes of Terence and Alvin continuing their outstanding form for the team, I can say that their opponent this weekend, Hornets will have a tough time to deal with them.
KLIUC Hornets form is the league has been erratic for most past of the season. They know how to play floorball but indifferent form showed by their players, lack of focus and ‘luck’ playing its part have cost Hornets dearly all throughout the current season. Against Salibandy!, they will be up against the in-form team at the moment and if their form do not change drastically, they will have a hard time this weekend playing against Salibandy!
Players to watch (Salibandy! Co.): Alvin, Terence, Joe, Song Sing
Players to watch (KLIUC Hornets): Azim, Azmill, Taqi, John
Prediction: Hornets might just give a decent fight but the win goes to Salibandy! after the final whistle.
Match 3: Subang Rascals vs Gang Bintang (4PM – 6PM)
The most anticipated match of the season that pits two fierce archrivals; Rascals and Bintang. A match that could actually determine the Champion elect of the league or prolong the battle till the end of the season.
Subang Rascals are the most potent team in the league where they have scored 162 goals. More than double against the 2nd highest scoring team in the league Salibandy! That just shows you that Subang Rascals means business to claim the title and for Gang Bintang, they should be wary of that. With Kamal, Sjaiful, Dennis and 3 or more players on ultra top form, we can be assured all out attack coming from Subang Rascals as they will be more determined than ever to topple their main rivals to the crown. The only downsides of rascals are still the goalkeeping department for which Gang Bintang will exploit it to the max.
Gang Bintang will go into this match feeling very cautious and nervy. According to some sources, their Singapore import might not be around to help them in this match as compared to last season which would make their task much harder in trying to stop the expected all out assault coming from Rascals. Jethro, Khalid, Rizal and Ilyaz will have to be smart and organized the team carefully in order to break the Rascals attack and create their own wave of attacks towards the rascals defence.
Players to watch (Subang Rascals): Kamal, Sjaiful, Dennis, Henrik, Snake
Players to watch (Gang Bintang): Khalid, Jethro, Ilyaz, Bob
Prediction: Both teams will go at each other with fierce intensity as expected from both. But I do believe that Subang Rascals might just be too strong this season for Gang Bintang. A title deciding win for Subang Rascals.
Match 4: GMI White Knights vs GMI Blackwings (6Pm – 8PM)
Another local derby match that pits the big brother against the little brother of GMI
White Knights got the much needed win last week by overcoming Joker 6-3. It will serve as the perfect boost for them in this ‘friendly’ encounter against the baby team of GMI, which is Blackwings. But nevertheless nothing can be taken for granted as Blackwings have improved tremendously of which White Knights must be aware of this.
GMI Blackwings almost caused a shock last week by drawing against the unimpressive Hornets. Against their ‘Big Brother’ White Knights, they will definitely be eager to show them that they are of the same level as their senior players. If they continue their current style of play, another shock win will be on the cards.
Player to watch (GMI White Knights): Amai, Penang, Shahir, Bard
Players to watch (GMI Blackwings): Asif, Hazizi
Prediction: A win for the ‘Big Brother’, GMI White Knights
Match 5: KLIUC Griffin vs Joker Prodigy FC (8PM – 10PM)
Griffin form suffered another slump last week as they lost their match against salibandy! 5-7. It has been said that they had been overachieving during the course of the season and last week lost somehow manage to bring them back into reality. This could be a blessing in disguise though as they could use it as a catalyst for them to improve back their form and go back into winning ways starting with the match against Joker Prodigy FC.
Joker Prodigy FC season is getting from bad to worse. Starting the league with some promises but somehow all of that has gone to the drain. Lost after lost have totally deplete them from any confidence and hunger to win any games ahead. This should be address immediately by the team as a whole because if not, they will just go adrift and lost all throughout the remainder of the season.
Players to watch (KLIUC Griffin): Naufal, Adi, Medi
Player to watch (Joker Prodigy): Ery, Amir, Hazwan
Prediction: A morale boosting win for Griffin to get them back on track. Another heartbreaking lost to Joker.
