PSIM Yogyakarta host Persija in Liga 1, with the home side having taken just a single point from their first three matches of the season, while the visitors have swept all three points from all three games and are still unbeaten. This match is therefore one where the home side must find a way to halt the visitors' hot streak before the table starts to stretch further and further away. PSIM Yogyakarta have not won any of their last four matches and have just lost two in a row by narrow scorelines. As for Persija, they have won five in a row, with the last three in the league won without needing to score many, but controlling the situation firmly. This game is likely to play out with Persija dominating possession and pushing high up the pitch, while PSIM Yogyakarta sit back in a block and wait for the chance to counter. The first thing to watch after kickoff is how well PSIM Yogyakarta cope with Persija's early attacking phases. If they let the visitors get easy space in front of goal, the game will flow in one direction for the entire first half.
