In addition to Rivera, Persebaya also has Gilson Costa and Mohamed Rashid in midfield. They were newly signed by Bajul Ijo at the beginning of the 2024/2025 season. They are expected to play a significant role. «So, we as players already know how he plays and how to anticipate his movements,» said the former Persib Bandung player.

Persib Bandung has the necessary components to secure a victory. However, being the defending champions might put Persib under pressure. If they manage to play freely, their chances of earning three points are substantial. PSBS Biak is expected to be well-prepared for the Liga 1 competition in every aspect. With a competitive roster and new foreign players, PSBS Biak’s strength is difficult to gauge. Score Prediction: Persib Bandung 2-1 PSBS Biak.

On the other hand, PSBS Biak is the champion of Liga 2 from last season. They triumphed over Semen Padang in the final. PSBS Biak, despite being a promoted side, should not be taken lightly. PSBS Biak has been strengthening their squad. Jeam Kelly Sroyer has been brought in to boost their offensive capabilities. Moreover, there is an 'Argentinian contingent' led by coach Juan Esnaider. Persib Bandung needs to address their fans' doubts following the 2024 President’s Cup. The way to achieve this is by securing a win against PSBS Biak. Coach Bojan Hodak is determined to earn three points for the Bobotoh. «Every match in the league is crucial, and we need to secure three points.

The head-to-head record between PSS Sleman and Persebaya is not favorable. In the last six encounters, PSS has never won against Bajul Ijo. During this period, Persebaya won three times, and the remaining three matches ended in draws. Persebaya has a strong roster, including Francisco Rivera, who was the best player in BRI Liga 1 2023/2024. However, this does not make PSS captain Kim Kurniawan concede defeat before the match. «Rivera had an outstanding season with Madura United FC last year and was a crucial player for the team. We need to control Rivera’s movement to limit his impact on Persebaya's play,» Kim said.

Persija Jakarta might be one of the most passive clubs for the upcoming Liga 1 season. So far, Macan Kemayoran has only signed one player. Carlos Bueno is the only new addition to Persija. The 29-year-old midfielder previously played in the Spanish third division. Carlos Bueno’s performances in the 2024 President’s Cup have also been underwhelming. In three matches, his role in midfield hasn’t been particularly prominent. Persija still has two foreign player slots available for next season. Currently, Macan Kemayoran has filled six of the available foreign slots. From the start, Persija’s management had planned to use only six foreign players. Besides Bueno, the other five are Ondrej Kudela, Maciej Gajos, Ryo Matsumura, Marko Simic, and Gustavo Almeida. Persija’s coach, Carlos Pena, has spoken about the possibility of adding more players to the squad for the upcoming Liga 1 season. Discussions with management are necessary. «Regarding new recruits, this is something I need to discuss with management,» said Carlos Pena. The call for Persija to seek additional players has grown louder after Macan Kemayoran was defeated 0-3 by Bali United on Friday night (July 26) at Captain I Wayan Dipta Stadium, Gianyar, in their third President’s Cup Group B match. «Of course, we will try to find solutions to strengthen the team as best as possible,» Carlos Pena said. «We still have time before the league starts. Let’s see what moves we can make,» he added.
