Persiku Kudus and Semen Padang meet in the Indonesia Championship, with the hosts having taken just 1 point from 5 matches and still without a win, while the visitors have collected 8 points from 6 matches and are climbing the table. This game is therefore one where the hosts need points to halt their slump, while the visitors want to keep their good form going. The two sides' form is clearly different. Persiku Kudus have just lost 0-6 and then lost again in consecutive matches, with their defence leaking badly, conceding 18 goals in their last five games, while Semen Padang have lost just two of six and conceded only 5, though their attack is still not sharp, scoring 6 in six games. The game is likely to be open from the start, because both teams have weaknesses in different areas. The hosts must push forward to score, but their defence leaves gaps for the visitors to counter into all game. If Persiku Kudus still cannot set up their defence solidly as before, this game is likely to produce plenty of goals, and the visitors are likely to have the edge from their greater sharpness.
