Goaloo Preview
Terengganu has shown a mixed performance in the tournament so far. They started with a surprising defeat against Preah Khan Reach Svay Rieng FC but managed to bounce back with a draw against Đông Á Thanh Hóa FC and a convincing win against Shan United FC. They are currently positioned in the fourth place in Group A with 4 points.
The team features notable players like Safawi Rasid, Manny Ott, and Akhyar Rashid, who have contributed significantly to their recent win. However, their last outing resulted in a 4-0 loss to Johor Darul Ta’zim FC in the Malaysia Cup, which might affect their morale.
Coach Badrul Afzan Razali has emphasized the importance of securing all three points in this match, indicating a strong preparation and motivation to overcome their recent setback.

PSM Makassar has been in excellent form in the Shopee Cup, leading Group A with 7 points from three matches. They've had a win, a draw, and another win, showcasing their capability to compete at this level.
Their recent performance in Liga 1 has been less consistent, with one win, one draw, and one loss in their last three games, but their focus seems to be on the ASEAN Club Championship where they are unbeaten.
They come into this match with some fatigue and injury concerns due to a busy schedule, but their coach, Bernardo Tavares, seems to have managed the squad well in preparation for this game.

Goaloo Prediction
Given PSM Makassar's current standing at the top of Group A with a better goal difference and their undefeated run in the tournament, they might have the upper hand. However, Terengganu, playing at home, has the advantage of knowing the pitch well and the support of their fans. Their recent 5-0 victory indicates they can be a formidable force when in form.
Considering both teams' recent performances and the importance of this match for their advancement, a close game is expected. A 2-1 win for Terengganu seems plausible if they can capitalize on home advantage and recover from their last defeat, but PSM Makassar's resilience could also lead to a 1-1 draw or them securing a narrow victory with a score like 2-1.

Pick: PSM
