BANDUNG - Persib Bandung coach Bojan Hodak confirmed that the competition for the 2025/2026 BRI Super League title will be tight until the end of the competition.
Currently, Persib is still at the top of the standings with 54 points, although in the last match they were held to a draw by Persebaya Surabaya with a score of 2-2.
In the standings, Persib is only one point ahead of Borneo FC who are in second place and three points from Persija Jakarta in third place.
"In this league, everyone can beat each other. So that's why this league is so interesting and this league is very difficult. This result just proves that, this league is interesting and difficult," said Bojan, quoted from the official I.League website, Antara, Sunday, March 8.
Persib will play the 25th week match against Persik Kediri on Monday (9/3) at the Gelora Bandung Lautan Api Stadium at 20.30 WIB.

From the 12 home matches that have been played, the team nicknamed Maung Bandung always won.
In the 12 matches, players such as Beckham Putra and his colleagues scored 22 goals and only conceded one goal, which was scored by Borneo FC.
Bojan said the players are currently in a positive and motivated condition to maintain the top position in the standings.
"Yes they look happy, we have had good results throughout the season and while we are number one at the moment. They all want to play. This is actually a problem for me because I am confused about who will appear in the first 11 players," said Bojan.
In the match against Persik, Bojan also gave good news regarding the condition of a number of players who had previously suffered injuries.
Center back Julio Cesar is said to have rejoined training after recovering from injury.
In addition, Layvin Kurzawa has also returned to normal training after missing the previous match.
