SRG. OG beat Homebois to top MLBB standings
Heading into the match, both sides were unbeaten and shared the top spot in the standings.
However, in the much-anticipated top-of-the-table clash, SRG. OG delivered a resounding 2-0 victory over Homebois at the Juara Stadium in Bukit Kiara, taking possession of the lead with two games remaining in the regular season.
The win puts SRG. OG on course for a historic third consecutive league title and a potential unbeaten run — a feat they last achieved in Season 13.
"Hopefully, we can go undefeated again," SRG. OG coach Michael Angelo "Arcadia" Bocado told the media after the match.
"It's something that could give us an extra boost going into the playoffs.
SRG. OG claimed 12 straight victories in Season 13 to secure their maiden league title in early 2024.
They then carried that flawless form into the Mid Season Cup in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, last July — making history as the first Malaysian eSports team to win an international title.
