PSS Sleman will visit Persija Jakarta headquarters (Instagram/@pssleman).

PSS Sleman is scheduled to undergo an away match to Persija Jakarta headquarters in the 23rd week of Liga 1 2023/2024.

Ahead of the match at Patriot Chandrabhaga Stadium, Bekasi, on Saturday, December 16, 2023, the visitors had read the situation of the Kemayoran Tigers which were recently less slick.

In their last three matches, Persija Jakarta has always failed to win three points. The Kemayoran Tigers were only able to finish the match with a draw. The details, against Bhayangkara FC (2-2), Persita Tangerang (1-1), and Persebaya Surabaya (1-1).

Persija's condition could be an advantage for PSS Sleman who is in better condition. So far, from the last three matches, the Javanese Super Elang won two wins and lost one.

Even though he has seen a gap between the hosts and is in a more profitable situation, it does not necessarily make PSS happy.

According to Risto Vidakovic as PSS coach, his team will only focus on their own preparations so that they can provide maximum results.

"Actually I can't know what response they gave tomorrow after that (they looked bad in three matches)."

"However, the most important thing is that our players are ready to face Persija," said the coach at a press conference at Patriot Chandrabhaga Stadium, Bekasi, on Friday, December 15, 2023.

"We have made preparations. We will try to give our best for tomorrow so we can get the best results too," continued Vidakovic.

Regarding the team's preparation, Vidakovic revealed that so far PSS Sleman has done his best. He confidently said that to face Persija Jakarta his team was 100 percent ready.

"So far, for the team's preparation, we have been very good. We have quite complete players in tomorrow's match, there is only one player who has accumulated," explained the coach.

"Overall players are ready, players show their hard work in training. We also have time to prepare for Persija. I think PSS is 100 percent ready for tomorrow's match against Persija," explained Vidakovic.

The team's mature readiness was also revealed by PSS Sleman player, Wahyudi Hamisi. The Super Elja midfielder even hopes to win three points at home to Persija as the closing of the last match in 2023.

"I represent my friends, we are ready for tomorrow's match against Persija. We have had good training and hopefully tomorrow we will close it in 2023 with a win," he said.
