PSM form and stats

PSM have been very solid at home in the Liga 1 so far, with 27 points collected from 10 matches (9-0-1). This has contributed greatly to their 9th position in the table. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on PSM to get some points in this home game.

The fans are hoping that PSM will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Liga 1 game against Arema (placed 4th). Heartbreak before that as PSM lost 1-3 at Persipura's place.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Liga 1 game versus Persija in only four days. This game is also played here at Stadion Pakansari Bogor.

PSM can score goals in their home matches. After 10 league matches they have found the net 20 times. PSM have only conceded 6 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Arema form and stats

There's been little loot from Arema's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 8 away games in the Liga 1. Arema only have 1 win to counter their 6 defeats and 1 draw. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Arema's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Arema are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the Liga 1 against PSM (placed 9th). Prior to that match, a home win 4-0 against PSS Sleman.

The schedule is very tough for Arema now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Liga 1 game at Persipura is waiting in only four days.

The visitors have scored 7 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. The Arema manager M. Šešlija has some worries about the defense as 16 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the Arema - PSM 2-0 earlier this season. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: 2 wins for PSM, 5 draws and 3 wins for Arema. Over 2,5 goals: 3 times; under 2,5 goals: 7 games.
