Two-horse race begins..

SSTMI Thunderbolts and UniKL Young Guns will be looking for goals this weekend to consolidate their Milo-Junior Hockey League Division One grip before the big clash on Feb 19.
Thunderbolts, the Overall champions, have a cushion of 26 goals while League champions UniKL have 20 goals at hand.
Both the title aspirants have not dropped a single point after five matches, and will play next weekend to decide the League champions.
Today, UniKL Young Guns meet BJSS Juniors, and next Friday it will be against USM Juniors where they need to pile up the goals before the big clash.
As for Thunderbolts, they play MBI Anderson and Tunku Besar Secondary School -- and both the matches could give them 10 more goals to add to their cushion.
In Division Two, Group A, Sapura only have easy matches against Kedah HA MSNK and Nur Insafi before playing in the semi-finals. The top-two teams in Division Two will then play in the quarter-finals of the Overall title.
“We have scored 37 goals and only let in one in six matches, and we should keep a clean slate and top Group A for the semi-finals.
“After that, we hope to life the Division Two title, and play against the best JHL teams this season for the Overall title,” said Sapura coach I. Vickneswaran.
Sapura, a regulars in Malaysia Hockey League, are fielding a JHL side for the first time and have produced stunning results in Division Two.
However, their true strength will only be known when they play in the Overall title against established JHL sides.
