A look at the Liga 1 standings shows that this is top- versus mid-table, but the outcome is not given. Read our Borneo - Madura United match preview!

Insights:
  • Borneo haven’t played a single 0-0 game at home.

Borneo are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Madura is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.

These teams have little in common geographically as Madura United have to travel 1500 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

The visiting Madura United played their last game only four days ago, a Liga 1 match.

Borneo form and stats

The complete Liga 1 stats at home this season for Borneo are 7-6-3 (wins-draws-losses). The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Stadion Kapten I Wayan Dipta.

An away draw last time out for Borneo, facing Arema in a game that ended 2-2.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Persiraja Banda Aceh in a game that was won 2-1.

This is expected to be a close game, with Borneo perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Borneo as a small favourite), we find five games. Borneo has won four of these, drawn one and lost zero.

Borneo are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 23 goals in 16 games.

Madura United form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Liga 1 travels is 5 wins, 6 draws and 5 defeats.

Madura United might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Bali United proved too strong as Madura United slumped to a 0-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Gelora Madura Ratu Pamelingan Stadium.

Prior to that result Madura United won their away game at Persija. The scoreline was 3-1.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Madura playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were three Madura United wins, four draws and two defeats.

The visiting Madura United have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 21 goals from 16 games.

Head 2 Head

The most recent recorded history featuring both these contenders is the Madura United - Borneo 2-2 played earlier this season. Head to head numbers (for the prior eight meetings): Borneo won three games, three matches ended with a tie and Madura United managed two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: six / two
