Team Target First Away Victory
By Alex How

Bandar Seri Begawan - Brunei DPMM FC continue in search of their first away win when they take on Terengganu in the Malaysian Super League at the Sultan Ismail Stadium tonight.

Fifth-placed Terengganu come into the match with their newly-found form, beating UPB/MyTeam FC 3-1 at MPJ Stadium last weekend. Terengganu's Gleisson de Souza's double in the 831 and 87th minute secured all three points for the visitors. Souza's teammate Zairo Anuar's first half penalty cancelled out UPB/MyTeam FC early lead by Mijo Dadic.

Before the win, Terengganu were struggling with their scoring form, registering a 1-1 draw with both Perak at home and away in Negri Sembilan NAZA. The draws caused the team to drop out of third place, now occupied by Perak with 28 points. Terengganu are now levelled with fourth-placed Perlis on 26 points.

Brunei DPMM FC, with only two wins this season, will be without Victor Jaganathan who is suspended after his red card against Selangor last weekend. Jaganathan impressed the crowds with his performance in the previous match but was unlucky to be sent off early in the match against Selangor. Helmi Panjang will be back to occupy the right flank, while Azwan Salleh will be on the left.

Abdul Wahab Mansor who had a great night last weekend might retain his role in the midfield alongside Hardi Bujang.

Without their injured skipper Rosmin Khamis, the team will now look to Pg Sallehuddin Pg Hj Damit, who took up the armband against Selangor. The experienced defender has guarded the back four well before a breakthrough from Selangor's Mohd Razman Roslan in the 69th minute.

Pg Sallehuddin will partner Francois Mpessa in the central defensive role and will be flanked by Haji Subhi Abdillah Bakir and Hasnawi Ismail. Brunei DPMM FC coach lordan Stoykov might turn to left wingback Sairol Sahri should he overcome his injuries in time.

While, Fadlin-Galawat, on the bench last weekend, will be fit to face Terengganu alongside his strike partner Mohd Shahrazen Said, while Mohd Wardun Yussof will remain in goal.

Elsewhere, Pahang will take on Perak, and Kedah will entertain Johor FC_ Perlis will host Negri Sembilan, Sarawak will visit Pulau Pinang and PDRM (Polis) will take on UPB/MyTeam FC.-- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
