jpnn.comBANDUNG – Persija Jakarta will carry out away to Persib Bandung’s home ground in the 6th week of League 1 2024/25 at the Si Jalak Harupat Stadium, Soreang, Bandung Regency, Monday (23/9/2024) afternoon.
Persija coach Carlos Pena just experienced the Persib vs Persija derby for the first time. The tactician admitted that he already knew the opponent’s strength.
In Pena’s eyes, Persib is not a random team. As the host, the team nicknamed Maung Bandung will certainly use all their energy to win.
“Persib is a good team and the defending champion. They won the final last season. We respect them, as we do all the other teams,” Pena said.
Pena instructed Rizky Ridho cum suis to play without fear in the upcoming match. Macan Kemayoran is ambitious to bring home three points to Jakarta.
“Of course this is a special match, so the players must be able to have stable emotions, focus on what is on the field and hopefully we can get three points here,” he said.
Based on statistics, from the last 30 meetings, Persib has won nine times, Persija has won 10 times, and 11 matches ended in a draw.
However, in the last five meetings, Persib has been more dominant over Persija. It is recorded that Maung Bandung won three times, while Macan Kemayoran won once, and one match ended in a draw.
