The game, played at Stadion Si Jalak Harupat, was fiercely contested from the beginning. Both teams were engaged in a back-and-forth exchange of attacks. The first major chance occurred when David Da Silva took advantage of a corner kick from Mailson, but his shot missed the PSBS Biak goal. In the 18th minute, Persib took the lead. Starting from a counterattack, Dimas Drajad delivered a cross from the right, which David Da Silva converted into a goal. Persib was ahead 1-0. The lead gave Persib more confidence, and they continued to press PSBS Biak, but the score remained 1-0 until halftime.

PSS Sleman (4-3-3): Alan Bernardon; Kevin Gomes, Phil Ofosu-Ayeh, Cleberson, Abduh Lestaluhu; Betinho, Kim Kurniawan, Moon Chang-jin; Ricky Cawor, Hokky Caraka, Gustavo Tocantins. Manager: Wagner Lopes.

- Alberto Goncalves (Beto): Known as Beto, this Brazilian naturalized player has become a full-fledged member of PSBS after being on loan from Madura United last season. At nearly 44 years old, Beto is not ready to retire and is determined to contribute significantly to PSBS’s success. His experience and presence will be crucial for PSBS as they aim for a strong start in Liga 1.

Persija Jakarta might be one of the most passive clubs for the upcoming Liga 1 season. So far, Macan Kemayoran has only signed one player. Carlos Bueno is the only new addition to Persija. The 29-year-old midfielder previously played in the Spanish third division. Carlos Bueno’s performances in the 2024 President’s Cup have also been underwhelming. In three matches, his role in midfield hasn’t been particularly prominent. Persija still has two foreign player slots available for next season. Currently, Macan Kemayoran has filled six of the available foreign slots. From the start, Persija’s management had planned to use only six foreign players. Besides Bueno, the other five are Ondrej Kudela, Maciej Gajos, Ryo Matsumura, Marko Simic, and Gustavo Almeida. Persija’s coach, Carlos Pena, has spoken about the possibility of adding more players to the squad for the upcoming Liga 1 season. Discussions with management are necessary. "Regarding new recruits, this is something I need to discuss with management," said Carlos Pena. The call for Persija to seek additional players has grown louder after Macan Kemayoran was defeated 0-3 by Bali United on Friday night (July 26) at Captain I Wayan Dipta Stadium, Gianyar, in their third President’s Cup Group B match. "Of course, we will try to find solutions to strengthen the team as best as possible," Carlos Pena said. "We still have time before the league starts. Let’s see what moves we can make," he added.

The match between PSM Makassar and Persis Solo on Saturday, August 10, 2024, will be streamed live on Vidio starting at 15:30 WIB. PSM Makassar has undergone significant player changes, losing the Sayuri brothers and yet to find suitable replacements. PSM struggled in the 2024 President's Cup, failing to win any of their three preseason matches. On the other hand, Persis Solo performed reasonably well in the President's Cup, losing only twice in five games. Despite some inconsistency, Persis Solo, led by experienced coach Milomir Seslija, may start the league on a strong note. The teams previously met in the 2024 President's Cup group stage, where they drew 2-2. In the 2023/2024 season, each team won one match against the other, both by a score of 1-0. PSM Makassar is expected to field many young players in the 2024/2025 season, aiming to play a 'rock and roll' style with their youth. However, experienced players like Muhammad Arfan and Yuran Fernandes will be crucial for the team. If they can effectively lead both tactically and technically, PSM could become a formidable team. "PSM Makassar has a lot of young players promoted to the senior team. But once again, I am ready to work hard and compete," said PSM Makassar's young player, Mufli Hidayat.

With these key players, PSBS Biak is poised to make a strong impact in their debut Liga 1 season. Fans and analysts will be watching closely to see how these players perform in the opening match against Persib Bandung.

Semen Padang will face PSS Sleman in the opening match of BRI Liga 1 2024/2025 at Gelora Bung Tomo Stadium on Sunday, August 11, 2024. The match between Persebaya and PSS will start at 19:00 WIB, live on Indosiar and Vidio. Persebaya secured a 2-0 victory over Persik Kediri in their most recent friendly match. The Bajul Ijo won, but their performance was not yet optimal. The collaboration of Francisco Rivera, Bruno Moreira, and Flavio Silva is still not quite cohesive. Meanwhile, PSS Sleman lost 1-2 to Persita Tangerang in their last friendly match. PSS's performance is not yet optimal, but there is hope in midfielder Moon Chang-jin, who is the creative force behind Super Elang Jawa's attacks. PSS Sleman's head-to-head record against Persebaya is not promising. In their last six encounters, PSS has never beaten Bajul Ijo. During this period, Persebaya won three times, with three other matches ending in draws.
