The 2024–25 season is Hougang United's 27th consecutive season in the top flight of Singapore football and in the Singapore Premier League and the Singapore Cup.

The women team will participate in the Women's Premier League.^[1]

Season Overview

Hougang United's 2023 season was a wild ride. Hopes soared after their 2022 Singapore Cup triumph, but early SPL stumbles, including winning only one of their first seven matches, quickly dimmed title aspirations. However, a coaching change proved pivotal, and the Cheetahs roared back in the cup, reaching the final before falling to Lion City Sailors.

For 2024, they will undergo a revamp with a new squad featuring retained stalwarts like Zaiful Nizam, Nazrul Nazari, Anders Aplin, Shahdan Sulaiman and the soon-to-be-naturalized Kristijan Krajcek. Hougang United is poised to pounce in the upcoming season.

Underperformed players like Amy Recha, Japanese duo defenders are all released.
