The Lion City Sailors will begin their 2026/27 ASEAN Club Championship (ACC) Shopee Cup campaign with two blockbuster home fixtures against the champions of Vietnam and Indonesia.
The ASEAN Football Federation (AFF) has officially unveiled the fixtures for the region’s premier club competition, with the Sailors set to host Vietnam’s Công An Hà Nội (CAHN) FC on 8 October before welcoming Indonesian champions Persib Bandung to Jalan Besar Stadium on 10 December in their opening two Group B matches.
The Sailors will then embark on their first away trip of the campaign, travelling to Cambodia to take on reigning champions PKR Svay Rieng FC on 17 December, before returning home to face 2025/26 Thai League 1 runners-up Port FC on 25 February 2027.
The three-time Singapore Premier League (SPL) champions will conclude the group stage with two away fixtures.
They will first face either Laos’ Ezra FC or Myanmar’s Shan United on 4 March, with the two sides set to contest a two-legged qualifying play-off for a place in the group stage, before rounding off their campaign against Malaysian giants Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) at Sultan Ibrahim Stadium on 1 April.
All three of the Sailors’ home fixtures will be played at the Jalan Besar Stadium as they seek a top-four finish in Group B to advance to the quarter-finals.
The knockout phase begins with single-leg quarter-final ties in May 2027, while the semi-finals and final will be contested over two legs, with the competition set to conclude on 30 June 2027.
