----------------------------------
The 2024-25 Liga 1 season continues with a classic rivalry between Arema FC and Persebaya Surabaya on Monday afternoon, April 28, 2025. The match will take place at Kapten I WayanDipta Stadium in Gianyar, starting at 3:30 PM local time.
Team Analysis:
This clash is expected to be a tough test for Arema FC, who are struggling with recent poor form. Despite being the home team, they will be playing away from Malang without the support of their fans, as the match is held behind closed doors. Arema FC, under coach Ze Gomes, have lost their last two matches, including a recent home defeat to Madura United. In contrast, Persebaya Surabaya, coached by Paul Munster, have been in strong form, remaining unbeaten in their last five matches, with three victories, including one away win. Persebaya’s recent success helped them bounce back from two consecutive draws.
Player Situation:
Persebaya will be without Slavko Damjanovic due to a red card in their last match, but they welcome back Bruno Moreira and Malik Risaldi, who have recovered from yellow card suspensions. Arema, on the other hand, will have most of their key players available, with Dalberto, who has scored 15 goals so far, expected to be a major threat to Persebaya's defense.
Result Prediction:
In their recent encounters, Persebaya have dominated the rivalry, winning eight of the last 12 matches. Arema has managed just one victory, with one match ending in a draw.
Predicted Result: Arema FC 1-2 Persebaya Surabaya
