The prestigious match was held when Persebaya Surabaya hosted Dewa United FC at the Gelora Bung Tomo Stadium, on Friday, September 27, 2024. This is the match week 7 of Liga 1 2024/2025. This match will be held at 15.30 WIB and is expected to be an interesting match between the two teams who are in good form.

Persebaya Surabaya entered this match with quite a satisfying result in the last few matches. Paul Munster's team managed to record three wins, one draw, and one defeat in the last five matches.

They scored six goals and conceded only three goals, indicating that their defense and attack were equally strong. In the last match, Persebaya was held to a draw by North Maluku United with a score of 0-0, despite having controlled the game.

Meanwhile, Dewa United FC also came with a positive trend, after winning two wins in the last five games, two draws, and one defeat. Jan Olde Riekerink's team managed to score eight goals, but also conceded six goals. They showed strength at the front, but still needed to improve the defense. In the last match, Dewa United drew 2-2 against Persib Bandung in a play full of drama.

If you look at the record meeting between the two teams, Persebaya has an advantage with two wins, while Dewa United won one win, and one game ended in a draw. Their last meeting took place in February 2025, where Persebaya won a narrow 2-1 victory over Dewa United. However, at the previous meeting in Liga 1 season 2023, Dewa United surprisingly managed to beat Persebaya in Surabaya with a score of 3-0.

Several key players from both teams should pay attention to this match. In Persebaya's camp, Bruno Moreira became the most productive player by scoring three goals so far this season. Malik Risaldi, who also impressed, has recorded two goals, while Flavio Silva and Mohammed Rashid each contributed one goal.

On the other hand, Dewa United has Egy Maulana Vikri and Alex Ferreira who have scored two goals each. In addition, Risto Mitrevski and Septian Bagaskara also contributed one goal for Dewa United.

Playing at home with Bonek's full support, Persebaya's loyal fans, will certainly provide more motivation for the home team to win. However, Dewa United is not an easy opponent, especially with their sharp attacking line performance in recent matches.

This match is predicted to be tight and fierce, where both teams have the potential to score goals. With the advantage of playing at home and supporting supporters, Persebaya Surabaya is favored to win a narrow victory in this match.
