Malaysia Super League 2011 - Selangor vs Kelantan to kick off new season.

The MSL new season is coming this Saturday (27/01/2011) where there are few cracking matches to be played. Selangor and Kelantan will open the new season to grab a winner for the Charity Shield match. Let's preview both teams.

Selangor:-
K Devan's side is the title holder and will surely prepared for this match. With 6 national players who just been crowned new AFF Suzuki Cup champions, they are the favorite to regain the title. However, based on bad previous meeting with Kelantan, Devan's side must to do something for their good start of the season.

Strength:- With AFF Suzuki Cup top scorer, Safee Sali will surely boost the Red Giant. His experience and technique to be the key figure in this match. With Amri Yahya and Hardi Jaafar to support from behind, Kelantan defence has to be worried about. In defence, talisman Nasriq and Khairul Anuar will command the backline and Sairul Anuar Sundar is between the post.

Weakness:- Some of the players performance can be questioned. With lack of confident in passing and hold the ball is the only weakness to improve.

Kelantan:- The Red Warrior has been snapped by the news of suspension of their head coach B Sathianathan. Not just that some of their last season key players already been moved to other club. The name of Indra Putra, Khairuddin Omar and Norfarhan action surely will be miss by the fans. However, the effective Khairul Fahmi in goal will once again to be bet to hold the Selangor.

Strenght:- Red Warrior good tactical performance and teamwork was the key success for last season Malaysian Cup Champions. Badri Radzi in midfield and Khairul Fahmi in goal will decide the game. This lads played very important role for their last season success. And I can sure they will get their form back and hold the Selangor.


Weakness:- With absence of head coach B Sathianathan and 4 important last season players, Kelantan will to find their best 11 to face defending league champions, Selangor. Lack to passion in midfield and poor defensive discipline is the only thing to improve.

Prediction: Selangor will come out as a winner. 1-0 to Selangor.
