The Group A clash in the 2025 Indonesia President’s Cup between Arema FC and Oxford United, held on July 10, 2025, at Si Jalak Harupat Stadium in Bandung, ended in a thrilling 2-2 draw.

Arema FC Performance
Arema FC, the 2024 President’s Cup champions, showed resilience under new coach Marcos Santos, fielding a 29-player squad. Their 4-3-3 formation featured Charles Lokolingoy and Dalberto, who combined for the opening goal in the 22nd minute, with Lokolingoy finishing a low cross from Dalberto. Arema’s second goal came from a 78th-minute penalty converted by Dedik Setiawan after a foul on Willian Marcilio. Despite their passionate home support, defensive errors allowed Oxford to equalize twice, with a 1.7 goals-against average in their last 10 matches (W3-D3-L4) exposing vulnerabilities. Johan Ahmat Farizi played through an ankle concern, but no new injuries were reported. Arema’s 40% win rate and 40% over 2.5 goals rate reflect their inconsistent but high-scoring games. Recent form: DWLDL.
Oxford United Performance
Oxford United, an EFL Championship side, continued their pre-season tour with a spirited performance, led by Gary Rowett’s 4-2-3-1. Mark Harris equalized in the 35th minute, capitalizing on a defensive error by Arema’s Arkhan Fikri, while Ole Romeny scored a stunning 85th-minute free-kick to salvage a draw, delighting Indonesian fans. Marselino Ferdinan and Przemysław Płacheta created chances, but Joe Bennett’s absence (thigh injury) and travel fatigue impacted their cohesion. Oxford’s 6-3 win over the All-Stars showcased their attack (1.2 goals per game), but their 70% handicap winning rate didn’t translate to a win here. Their 60% over 2.5 goals rate aligns with this high-scoring draw. Recent form: DWLWD.
Head to Head
This was the first competitive meeting between Arema FC and Oxford United, with no prior H2H data. The 2-2 draw aligns with both teams’ recent trends for high-scoring games (Arema: 40% over 2.5 goals, Oxford: 60%). Expected goals per match: ~2.8, with both teams scoring in 60% of their respective last 10 games.
