Three Teams Fight for One Last Spot in Liga 1 Survival: A Final Countdown
The Liga 1 2024-25 relegation battle has become intense following Semen Padang’s draw against Persik Kediri. This result has pushed Semen Padang back into the relegation zone, where they are now fighting with two other teams, PSS Sleman and Barito Putera, for one remaining spot in next season’s league. Semen Padang currently sits at 33 points, just above the cutoff for safety, but their fate is far from secure with only one game left to play. Both PSS and Barito have 31 points, which keeps the competition fierce as the season reaches its climax.
Semen Padang's scenario is the most favorable among the three. They can secure their survival by winning against Arema FC, which would give them 36 points. A draw against Arema could also keep them safe, provided that Barito Putera loses and PSS Sleman fails to win. Even if Semen Padang loses to Arema, they could still stay up if both PSS and Barito fail to gather points in their respective matches. The team will be hoping for a combination of results in their favor to avoid relegation.
PSS Sleman and Barito Putera, both with 31 points, must win their final games and rely on Semen Padang’s failure to secure safety. PSS faces Madura United, and Barito plays PSIS Semarang. If both teams win, the situation will depend on goal difference or head-to-head records. In a tie, Barito Putera holds the advantage over both PSS and Semen Padang due to their superior results in direct encounters. As the season concludes, the three teams are all hoping to escape relegation by securing the crucial final points.
