Selangor were expected to continue their winning streak but were surprisingly struggled against ATM away at Paroi. Bruno Martelotto give an early lead to the home side when a scintillating run and dribble from Marlon Alex James past the defender found Bruno's feet in which he didn't waste time to fired to the top of the net in the 16th minute. There could be more goals for the home side as Selangor were looking as good as dead in the final third but they were lucky enough to have in-form goalkeeper Norazlan Razali producing a lot of parries and saves from conceding much more goals. Marlon Alex James round off the victory with a penalty kick conceded by Selangor defender late in the game while Raimi sending off didn't help the away side either from finding themselves in the end of defeat.

ATM 

Promoted to the top-flight for the first time since Super League inception in 2004, ATM will be looking to challenge for the title against likes of Kelantan and Lion XII after winning Premier League last season and impressive run in Malaysia Cup as they against the odd by qualifying to the final before losing to the eventual winner Kelantan. But the losses of several key players including the twins Aidil and Zaquan and Azmi Muslim may affect their title ambition after spending heavily last season. They will now have to content with the player that still remain in the club to continue their desire to become one of the top club in Malaysia. If Marlon Alex James and Hairuddin Omar continue to replicate their form last season and with the addition of Shukor Adan, they will certainly have a chance to win the title or at least competing in the top 3 in Malaysia Super League.
