Preview: ATM v PFA Odin Sarawak
ATM and PFA Odin Sarawak meet in a mid table battle, the in-form hosts on a three match unbeaten run against a PFA side fresh from a battling draw with Terengganu.
There is a mid table battle on Matchday 1 between ATM and PFA Odin Sarawak, the sides sitting fourth and sixth respectively.
Having lost their opening two games, ATM arrive on a three match unbeaten run, with wins over USM and Wipers followed by last weekend's thrilling 5-5 draw with Kuala Lumpur City, when two Bukhari penalties levelled the scores late on. He even had the chance to win it with the last kick of the match, another second penalty, but the effort was saved by KL keeper Arif Alias.
It was a fine effort all the same, with Izmir Firdaus's side having trailed 4-1 at half time.
PFA Odin have shown their own resilience at times. Their two defeats came against Selangor and JDT, and a 2-2 draw with Terengganu last weekend was a welcome point, second half goals from Safiq Hamzah and Asyraff Zakaris hauling them back after they had trailed 2-0.
A win would move PFA Odin to within three points of third placed Johor Darul Ta'zim, who do not play on Matchday 1.
Kick-off is at 5.00pm on Saturday.
