The ATM Guardians exacted revenge against the Selangor Pistons in the highlight match of Saturday's Emas Anuar Sepak Takraw League (STL) action at the Titiwangsa Stadium.
The STL Premier leaders, whose only defeat of the season came against Farhan Adam and Co., ensured there would not be a repeat by picking up a 22-20, 21-14 victory.

The win crucially restored their six-point lead at the top, after the Kuala Lumpur Thunder earlier came out on top in the Federal Territory Derby against the Putrajaya Cyborg, winning 21-19, 21-18.
The defeat saw the Cyborg slip further away from the title race in the second half of the season alongside the Penang Black Panthers, who were beaten 12-21, 21-15, 17-21 by the Perak Bison.
Both Cyborg and Black Panthers had been among the better teams in the earlier rounds.
The final match of the day saw the Bomba Fighters notch their second win in a row as they defeated the Johor Tigris 23-21, 19-21, 21-13 in a relegation battle.
The win moved the Fighters away from the bottom of the standings, moving level on points with Johor and Selangor with four wins apiece.
