Struggling Perseru Serui will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Arema in the upcoming league round. It’s 17th vs 6th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Perseru Serui form and stats
Perseru Serui's struggle is real here at Marora Stadium with only 9 points collected from 13 Liga 1 games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-6-6. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Perseru Serui with their four defeats in a row. Not since the PSIS Semarang game, 33 days ago, have they avoided a loss. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Perseru Serui, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.
Perseru Serui's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-1 versus Persipura (placed 4th). Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Bali United (0-3).
There will be little rest for Perseru Serui after this match as they are travelling to Borneo for a Liga 1 game in only four days.
Perseru Serui aren't scoring a lot here at Marora Stadium in the league, with only 12 goals from 13 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Perseru Serui defense is not exactly impregnable. 21 goals conceded from 13 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
Arema form and stats
There's been little loot from Arema's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 11 away games in the Liga 1. Arema, who have the most scored goals (47) in Liga 1, only have 1 win to counter their 7 defeats and 3 draws. Two points from the last two away games for Arema, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.
Arema are travelling after their nice 1-0 home win in the Liga 1 against Semen Padang (placed 18th). A 1-1 draw at PS TNI's stadium before that.
Arema find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 12 goals from 11 away fixtures in the league. Arema have conceded 25 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
