Are we in for another Group of Death?
The last edition of the Malaysia Cup saw Kedah lift the trophy for the fifth time after defeating Selangor 6-5 on penalties after the game ended 1-1 at the Shah Alam.
However, Kedah had a fairly easy route to the final after being drawn with T-Team FC, Johor Darul Takzim II and Sarawak in Group A. They then brushed aside Negeri Sembilan 5-0 over two legs in the quarter-final before bringing down PDRM 2-1 in the semi-final, which set up a mouth-watering clash between them and the 33-time Malaysia Cup winners.
The group of death last year was Group B; Selangor, Kelantan, Pahang and Kuala Lumpur.
FourthOfficial.com’s predicted “Group of Death” this year:
Johor Darul Takzim
Kelantan
Negeri Sembilan
Kuala Lumpur
Enjoy the draw live on TV9 at 10.30pm tonight!
