It has been revealed that Persija Jakarta's planned friendly match against Atletico Madrid was canceled due to their involvement in the 2024 President's Cup. Initially, there were rumors that Persija would face Atletico Madrid on Saturday (August 3) at Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) as part of their preparations for the upcoming season. However, Persija advanced to the semifinals of the 2024 President's Cup and had to compete for third place against Persis Solo on the same day at Stadion Manahan, Solo. "It was impossible because we were in the third-place match of the 2024 President's Cup, right?" said Persija's Director, Mohamad Prapanca, to reporters. He added that Atletico Madrid could only visit on that specific date, which conflicted with Persija’s schedule. "We were ready to host them, but we had to adhere to the regulations set by our federation," Prapanca continued. Prapanca is uncertain whether Atletico Madrid will still come to Indonesia following the cancellation of the friendly. He mentioned that Persija initially planned to test their strength against the Spanish giants. "I’m not sure. You should inquire with the promoter about Atletico Madrid’s visit. Regarding the planning, yes, the plan was made," Prapanca added. "But the promoter also needs to get approval from our federation and PT LIB to see if it could be arranged during the 2024 President’s Cup," he concluded.

Persib Bandung will host PSBS Biak in the opening week of BRI Liga 1 2024/2025 at Stadion Si Jalak Harupat on Friday, August 9, 2024. The match between Persib and PSBS will kick off at 19:00 WIB, live on Indosiar and Vidio. Persib Bandung is the reigning BRI Liga 1 champion. Maung Bandung struggled in the 2024 President’s Cup, raising some concerns about their performance. However, it is believed that Persib is much better prepared than during the President’s Cup.

Under the guidance of coach Juan Esnaider, PSBS has been bolstered by experienced players competing at the top level. Kelly Sroyer is anticipated to be a crucial asset for PSBS Biak. Persib Bandung (4-3-3): Kevin Mendoza; Robi Darwis, Nick Kuipers, Gustavo Franca, Rezaldi Hehanusa; Marc Klok, Mateo Kocijan, Adam Alis; Dimas Drajad, David da Silva, Ciro Alves. Coach: Bojan Hodak. PSBS Biak (4-3-3): Mario Londok; Barnabas Sobor, Julian Velazquez, Yohanes Kandaimu, Marckho Merauje; Jonata Machado, Diandra Diaz, Williams Lugo; Gabriel Esparza, Alexsandro, Jeam Kelly Sroyer. Coach: Juan Esnaider. The two teams have never met in an official match before.

Arema FC will be playing in front of their home fans, which could be a key factor in boosting player motivation. However, there is also a potential for Singo Edan to be mentally fatigued after their intense pre-season battles in the 2024 Presidential Cup. Dewa United has a very good squad. But if coach Riekerink fails to mold them into a cohesive unit, this great talent could become a disadvantage. To win, Dewa United needs to play collectively. Predicted Score: Arema FC 2-2 Dewa United.
