This is a game between two teams close together at the top of the table. Persela sit in 3rd place, while Persipura follow in 6th. Both have played 7 matches, but they are separated by three points. So this is a game where the hosts want to maintain the gap, while the visitors want to close in. Persela come in with a solid defence, having conceded only 4 goals in 7 matches, and they recently thrashed the opposition 6-0 at home in their last league outing. Persipura, meanwhile, arrive with their attack firing, having won two in a row and scored 11 goals in those two matches, but their defence has also leaked, conceding 1-3 in the match they lost to their opponents earlier. The pattern of play is therefore likely to see Persipura trying to push forward, while Persela defend in an organised way and wait for the counter. If the hosts control the tempo and don't leave gaps for the visitors to play easily, the game is likely to finish with a modest number of goals.
