Singapore football fans can finally look forward to the commencement of the 2024-25 Singapore Premier League (SPL) season that will kick off on May 10.
The Football Association of Singapore on April 12 announced the fixtures for the new season in a revised calendar that will end in May 2025.
It will take place in a quadruple round-robin format with each of the nine teams playing 32 matches - 16 home and 16 away. The Singapore Cup, which will be played concurrently, will begin in January 2025 with the final in May.
Matches will be played primarily from Friday to Sunday, with kickoffs at 7.45pm and 6pm on weekdays and weekends respectively. As with previous seasons, every match will be broadcast live.
Two-time league champions Brunei DPMM will also return to their home ground at the Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium, meaning that local teams will experience a genuine away-day match experience again.
The former champions had made the Jalan Besar Stadium (JBS) their temporary home last season as their own stadium was undergoing renovation works.
