Bhayangkara
- Bhayangkara Presisi Indonesia FC have made a remarkable comeback in the second half of the Liga 1 season, winning four of their last six league games and taking the most important one of all - a 3-2 thriller over Persija.
- Bhayangkara sit fourth with 47 points.
- Paul Munster has brought up the dead at the club, focusing on a defense-first approach that has given his forwards a platform to launch counter attacks.
- The ‘Buffaloes’ sit deep, but are quick to transition when they win the ball, allowing their wide players to stretch the field and break down opponents.
Persib
- Persib lead the 2025-26 Liga 1 table with 66 points from 29 games, one point ahead of Borneo FC on head-to-head results.
- Persib have drawn two of their last five.
- Persib are based on a possession and patient build-up style, with Marc Klok their engine room, Eliano Reijnders their creativity and Tanque their sharp pointy end.
Head-to-Head
- Bojan Hodak’s side have had the edge in their recent meetings, winning 2-0 last time out in the league.
- Persib also edged Bhayangkara 2-1 in September 2023.

Betting Insights
- Odds: Bhayangkara 5.33, Persib 1.55, Draw 3.72.
- Market pick: Backing the Over 2.5 goals line at 1.83 looks good because Persib will try to press and Bhayangkara will have to push forward at some point in the game.
Prediction
- Persib need the win more as they cannot afford to give ground to Borneo FC in the title run-in.
- We feel Bhayangkara can upset the odds here by taking the game to them.
