SINGAPORE - Lion City Sailors striker Stipe Plazibat will face a late fitness test to decide if he will be ready for Sunday's high-stakes showdown against Singapore Premier League leaders Albirex Niigata.
"If this was a cup final or the final game of the season, then it's a completely different story. There's no question we would try to play him because if he breaks down we are going into a break. But this situation is a bit different, a bit more delicate." The other title contender, Tampines Rovers, also have 20 points like Albirex and travel to face Tanjong Pagar United in Sunday's other match.
But standing in their way is an obdurate Albirex defence that has kept three consecutive clean sheets and a winning mentality.
