Revision as of 08:25, 19 July 2014

The 2014 Singapore League Cup is the 8th season of Singapore's premier club football tournament organised by Football Association of Singapore, and also known as the 2014 StarHub League Cup for sponsorship reasons.

For the second year in succession, National Football League clubs will participate in the tournament. Unlike the previous season where NFL sides had to compete in play-offs to earn the right to represent the league against the professionals, the representatives in this edition qualified through the league positions from last season.^[1]

Balestier Khalsa are the defending champions.

Teams

The top ten clubs from 2013 S.League were divided into three pools based on their final league positions. Developmental sides Harimau Muda and Young Lions have opted out of participation in this year's edition as they will be on a training tour in Austria. League positions of the previous season are shown in parentheses.

Pool A	Pool B	Pool C
Tampines Rovers (1st)	Woodlands Wellington (5th)	Geylang International (9th)
Home United (2nd)	Tanjong Pagar United (6th)	Hougang United (10th)
Albirex Niigata (S) (3rd)	Warriors (7th)	Police Sports Association* (1st)
Balestier Khalsa (4th)	Brunei DPMM (8th)	Singapore Recreation Club* (2nd)

* Police Sports Association and Singapore Recreation Club are clubs from the NFL. They finished champions and runners-up respectively in Division One.

Draw

The 12 participating teams were drawn into the four groups of the preliminary stage. In preparation for this, the teams were seeded into four pots based on their 2013 S.League and National Football League standings. The draw took place on 20 June at the Jalan Besar Stadium, during which the teams were drawn by various club representatives. The tournament schedule was also released on 20 June.

Format

The preliminary phase is a competition between the 12 teams divided among four groups of three, where each group engages in a round-robin tournament within itself. The two highest ranked teams in each group advance to the knockout phase. The third-placed team in each group enter the plate knockout phase. Teams are awarded 3 points for a win and one for a draw.

Tie-breaking criteria for group play
The ranking of teams in each group is based on the following criteria: Number of points Goal difference Number of goals scored Head-to-head record between tied teams Drawing of lots

Preliminary phase

The preliminary phase began on 7 July and will conclude on 15 July. There were some changes to the fixtures released.

Changes to fixtures

Group B: Tampines Rovers v Warriors was postponed from 10 July to 12 July due to technical faults.^[2]

Group C: Home United v Singapore Recreation Club has been postponed from 11 July to 14 July.

Group C: Woodlands Wellington v Singapore Recreation Club was brought forward from 14 July, 8pm to 11 July, 8.15pm.
