Coming up, as of 29 October 2026

The Premier League has just changed time for Malaysian viewers. The UK moved its clocks back on 25 October 2026, so the usual 3pm Saturday kick-off in England now starts at 11pm in Malaysia, an hour later than in August, September and most of October. That stays the case until the UK clocks go forward again on 28 March 2027. Our Premier League viewing guide converts every standard kick-off slot.

Harimau Malaya play next in a four-team tournament in Guangzhou, China, meeting the hosts at 8pm on 14 November and Yemen at 2pm on 17 November. China and Malaysia share a time zone, so those times are Malaysian times too. The team is still under an interim coach, Tan Cheng Hoe, while the Football Association of Malaysia decides on a permanent appointment. The Harimau Malaya guide explains how the team reached this point.

At home, the 2026/27 Super League season is under way, with Johor Darul Ta'zim chasing a 13th straight title. The FA Cup final is set for 16 January 2027 and the 100th Malaysia Cup starts later that month, with dates subject to change around Asian club fixtures.

How we write about football

NILS began as a site checking online casino licences for readers in Malaysia, and the same rules apply to our football pages. We write from official sources first, such as the Premier League, FIFA, the Asian Football Confederation, the Football Association of Malaysia and the broadcasters' own announcements, and from established Malaysian news outlets such as Bernama, The Star, the New Straits Times and Free Malaysia Today. Where a fact rests on a single report, or could not be confirmed, we say so.

We publish no betting odds, tips or predictions, and we link to no bookmaker. Betting on football online is not legal in Malaysia, and offshore betting sites that sponsor football clubs are no exception; our guide to online gambling law in Malaysia explains why. Football is worth following for its own sake.

Prices and fixture times change. Each guide shows the date its facts were checked, and we update the pages as the season moves on.
