Dismissing Singapore as "not much of a team" without their five naturalised players, Malaysia captain Safiq Rahim also suggested that the Lions couldn't deal with the 85,000 Tigers fans that will be baying for their blood at the Bukit Jalil Stadium tomorrow.
However, Singapore have a good record away from home in front of crowds much larger than the 6,000-capacity Jalan Besar Stadium.
In fact, the Lions themselves are relishing the thought of silencing their noisy neighbours.
It doesn't matter whether or not singapore wins or not, Their level of football must match the Asian standard, Otherwise they are better off competing in the Oceania level though.
There is not much mind games.
They are equal when both of them are at top form.
Tigers got the edge of home ground.
Tigers should be able to maul the Lions.
Malaysia 3 Singapore 2
Singapore win 7-6 on agg
MAJULAH!!

Hmm....Oceania has Australia, who will be hard to overcome. Maybe grab the remaining spot(s)?
Oh, and I didn;t like the way the Tigers played towards the end of the match....dirty play.

Australia has shifted to asia, if I am not wrong.
As in they no longer will play as an oceania country. They will play as AFC, even though they still belong to oceania.
