Today, we will take a look at a match for the Hong Kong premier league! Now, let’s take a look at our teams:
The Home Team
On the home side we have the Lee Man FC. They are a Hong Kong professional football club owned by Lee & Man Chemical, which competes in the Hong Kong Premier League. During the 2016-17 season, Lee & Man Paper sponsored and operated the team Lee Man Rangers. In 2017, they invested in building their own football club, paying a HK$1 million entrance fee to the Hong Kong Football Association. Fung Ka Ki was hired as the first manager, but the club finished in 8th place. In 2018, Chan Hiu Ming was hired as head coach, and under his leadership, the club won its first trophy, the 2018-19 Hong Kong Sapling Cup, in a 3-2 victory over Yuen Long.
The Visitors
On the other side of the field we have the Hong Kong FC. The HKFC is a private members’ club in Hong Kong, established in 1886. It plays association football and rugby, with pitches inside the Happy Valley Racecourse. The club’s 2,750-capacity stadium hosts all its matches, including most international matches for the Hong Kong Rugby Union. Founded by Sir James Haldane Lockhart, HKFC played its first rugby union match on 16 February, 1886 and its first football match on 16 March 1886. The Hong Kong International Rugby Sevens was founded in 1976 and played at the club until 1982, when it moved to the Hong Kong Government Stadium. In 1995, the club moved into a new purpose-built home. HKFC has worked closely with various sports associations to promote 11 sports, including rugby, soccer, squash, tennis, hockey, lawn bowls, netball, crickets, golf, sailing, and rowing.
The stats
Lee Man is at the top of the table and still undefeated after 14 games played. Right now, they have 36 points, with 11 wins and 3 draws, 43 goals scored, and only 13 suffered. The Hong Kong FC, on the other hand, is at 8th place. They have 14 points in 13 games played, 4 wins, 3 draws, and 7 losses. They also have 15 goals scored and 33 suffered, which indicates a weak defence.
What to expect?
It is surprisingly had to say despite the apparently clear advantage the home team has here. If the odds are good a bet on Lee Man to win will be good, but a Over/Under bet is probably for the best here. More specifically, over 3, considering the home team’s high score history and the visitors weak defence. The odds will be available soon so it is your turn to open an account at Game2Bet to secure your place among the winners!
