Negeri Sembilan FC (NSFC) hopes to kick off the 2025–2026 Super League season with positive results in their opening three matches this August.

The Jangs will first face Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) on 12 August, followed by two home matches at Paroi, against Selangor FC on 24 August and Kuching City FC on 28 August.

Head coach Mohd Nidzam Jamil acknowledged that all three teams possess different strengths and will require varying tactical approaches and strategies.

“Each of these matches presents its own set of challenges, and we will assess and approach them one at a time, depending on the strengths of our opponents,”

“The best approach is to remain positive and keep an open mindset so we stay prepared to face any challenge,” he said.

Nidzam also emphasized the message from NSFC Chairman Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun, that the team must no longer be seen as easy opponents as a motivating factor to push for strong results.

He noted that there have been many positive developments within the team recently, with players showing enthusiasm following a solid round of training sessions and friendlies.

“Day by day, the players are embracing a positive mindset and work ethic, which is vital for helping the team navigate a demanding season,” he added.

At the same time, Nidzam called on fans to come out and show their full support in every match.

“I see the supporters as the team’s number one asset. Whether at training or in coffee shops, they’re talking about the team and that truly excites me.”

“We want the people of this state to feel that this is their team, a team they’re proud of, just like they are with our culture, customs, and food,” he said.
