JAKARTA - Persib will face Persija in the first leg of the Menpora Cup final at Maguwoharjo Sleman Stadium, Thursday 22 April 2021, starting at 20.30 WIB. Both teams have prepared well.
Persib coach Robert Alberts said he would reduce the composition of his best players in the match tonight. Nobody was unable to attend the Blue Prince team, although Dedi Kusnandar, who previously suffered an injury, cannot be confirmed for this match.
The 66-year-old man also revealed that he would appear to be attacking from the first minute. The style of play which is closely related to the typical Dutch football game is considered to be compatible with the play of the Blue Prince.
"I think the way we do it will be the same as the other games. We are a team that has not been beaten in this tournament since 2020. Our players enjoy attacking games, and also enjoy defending," said Alberts as quoted by Persib's official website.
From the Persija camp, coach Sudirman said that his team had used the time to prepare for the final by conducting training and evaluation, including by dissecting Persib's weaknesses.
Persija has been able to lower Marco Motta, who was previously forced to miss due to a red card. In addition, Pangeran Biru also needs to be aware of the possibility of Marco Simic exploding who has contributed two goals for the Kemayoran Tigers.
"The preparation to fight Persib is going well. We have been training and evaluating our performance in the previous match and also evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of Persib which we will try to take advantage of," said Sudirman.
