JAKARTA - Borneo FC will host Persik Kediri in the 18th week of Liga 1 2023/2024 on Thursday, October 2. The match will be held at the Segiri Stadium, Samarinda, at 19.00 WIB.

The moment to meet Persik Kediri will be utilized optimally by Borneo FC to strengthen his position at the top of the standings. Moreover, this 18th week is the opening match of the second round of the competition.

Borneo FC, which is Pieter Huistra's squad, currently ranks first in Liga 1 standings with 35 points. The result is an accumulation of ten wins, five draws and two defeats.

Even though they are now in the top position, Borneo FC did not necessarily calm down. Because they are only 4 points away from their closest competitors in second and third place, which are filled by Persib Bandung and Madura United.

For the visitors, a visit to Borneo FC headquarters will be a difficult match. Because if you look at the position in the standings, currently Persik is ranked ninth with 23 points from six wins, five draws and six defeats.

In addition, Borneo FC is also known to be fierce when playing at home. So far Diego Michiels et al are unbeaten when playing at the Segiri Stadium Samarinda with a record of seven wins and two draws.

This statistic is certainly far from Persik Kediri's score when playing away. Until the 17th week of Liga 1, Persik was only able to pack nine points from two draws and suffered four defeats at home to opponents.
