With 3 Liga 1 wins, 4 draws and 7 defeats from their home games, Persipura are certainly not brimming with confidence.

A 1-1 draw away before that, with PS TNI the opponent.

PSM form and stats

3 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses. That’s the product of PSM playing as the away team in the Liga 1 this season. Two points from the last two away games for PSM, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.

PSM are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 0-0 draw at Persipura (placed 16th).

That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus PSIS Semarang.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with PSM playing away and similar expectations, we found 15 relevant matches. Results were two PSM wins, five draws and eight defeats.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far PSM have scored 15 goals in 14 league games away.
