PSIS Vs Persis: Mahesa Jenar's Determination To Win First Victory Over Samber's Life

JAKARTA - On Sunday, March 17, 2024, at 20:30 WIB, PSIS will welcome Persis Solo at Batakan Stadium, Balikpapan. This certainty was obtained after the PSIS implementing committee (Panpel) received a recommendation from the stadium manager, namely the Balikpapan City Government and the local police.

The match between the two teams itself will be held without spectators and kick off at 20.30 WIB. This match was moved because the condition of PSIS's cage is still being renovated.

"Alhamdulillah, after going through various stages. The match between PSIS and PSIS against Persis has a meeting point and will be held at Batakan Balikpapan Stadium without spectators. Please pray for the match to run smoothly," said the chairman of the PSIS committee, Agung Buwono on Thursday (14/3).

The two teams have faced each other three times before, where Mahesa Jenar, nicknamed PSIS, has not managed to record a single victory over Laskar Samber Kehidupan, nicknamed Persis, in Liga 1. PSIS has only recorded 2 draws and lost 1.

In the last five games, PSIS has shown quite good performance by scoring a total of 7 goals. However, a less encouraging note is that they have not been able to achieve a clean sheet in the last eight games.

On the other hand, Persis Solo also impressed by scoring 9 goals in their last five matches. However, they also had difficulties in away matches where they had not won in the last 7 matches outside their homes.

PSIS will try hard to take advantage of the advantage of playing in front of its own supporters to achieve the expected victory. However, Persis Solo will definitely not give the victory easily.

With a fairly competitive position in League 1 standings, both teams will fight hard to get the full three points in this match, as every win will be meaningful to keep their hopes in competition.

However, PSIS's performance in the standings is now better. Mahesa Jenar is currently in 5th position in the League 1 standings with a total of 46 points from 28 matches. They have won 13 games, drew in 7 matches, and lost in 8 matches. Even though they are in the middle of the standings, PSIS still has a chance to crawl to a higher position by winning this match.

Meanwhile, Persis Solo is 9th in the standings, with a total of 38 points from 28 matches. They have won 10 matches, drew in 8 matches, and lost 10 matches. Persis Solo also still has a chance to win a better position by winning positive results in this match.

When PSIS has a record for less profitable encounters but plays at home, and Persis Solo is in a lower standings position, this match is predicted to be a fierce battle between the two teams for three important points in the hunt for a better position in Liga 1.

This match will be an interesting event to look forward to, as both teams will give everything to achieve positive results.
