Persita host Persija in Liga 1 tonight. In their last meeting, Persija won away 2-0, and before that they also won 4-0 and 2-0. This time it is different in that Persita are still unbeaten in the league this season and are playing at home where they are on an unbeaten run of 4 matches. Persita have collected 8 points from 4 matches, scoring 8 goals in attack, but their defence has conceded as many as 6 goals. Their most recent scoreline was a 2-1 win that required effort until the closing stages, while Persija lead the table with a full 12 points, on a winning run of 5 consecutive matches, and have just thrashed their opponents 4-0 in their latest match. Their defence has conceded only one goal across 4 league matches. The pattern of play is likely to be Persija dominating possession and pushing high up the pitch, while Persita drop deep to defend and wait to counter. If Persija score first, the game will open up further and the hosts will have to push up to trade blows, which is the situation the visitors thrive in. But if Persita take the lead before half-time, the game will become one where Persija have to attack heavily and the hosts will drop even deeper to protect their score.
