JAKARTA - Persija Jakarta will play the match week 3 of Liga 1 2023/2024 by hosting Bhayangkara FC on Sunday, July 16. In this second home match, the club nicknamed the Kemayoran Tigers will use the Patriot Chandrabhaga Stadium, Bekasi.

Persija's management claimed to have obtained a match permit and used Patriot Stadium as a venue, as reported by the club's official website, Monday, July 10.

"Persija Jakarta will undergo its second home party at Patriot Candrabhaga Stadium, Bekasi, Sunday (16/7/2023), at 19.00 WIB," said Persija's official statement.

"The Kemayoran Tiger will host its guests who are also based in Jakarta, namely Bhayangkara FC. The management of the Kemayoran Tigers has obtained a match permit from the Bekasi City Metro Resort Police," the official statement continued.

However, based on the agenda distributed by PT Liga Indonesia Baru (LIB), Persija will still use the Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium (SUGBK), Senayan as the location of the match.

The return of Persija to Patriot Stadium also raises questions. The reason is, in the 2nd week against PSM Makassar this capital team can hold matches in SUGBK even though the schedule has been postponed.

However, based on information, Persija Jakarta cannot host Bhayangkara FC in SUGBK because on the same date there will be a political way at the planned location.

Persija management will provide 27,000 tickets for their supporters, The Jakmania. This amount is in accordance with the recommendation letter of the police who consider aspects of security and comfort.
