JAYAPURA - Persipura Jayapura is faced with a tough schedule in the continuation of Liga 2 2022/2023 Eastern Region. After meeting Putra Delta Sidoarjo, the team nicknamed Mutiara Hitam will undergo two Papuan derby matches.

Persipura, which is now being handled by Ricky Nelson, will face Persewar Waropen and PSBS Biak.

Persipura first faced Persewar Waropen at the Mandala Jayapura Stadium, Saturday, October 1. Then the team nicknamed Mutiara Hitam will travel to the Cendrawasih Stadium at PSBS Biak, Friday, September 7.

Before undergoing the two Papuan derbys, Persipura will host Putra Delta Sidoarjo at the Lukas Enembe Stadium, Tuesday, September 27. Victory will certainly increase the motivation of the players ahead of the derby match.
