A few months back, Barito Putera and Persela met and it ended 1-1 at Persela's home, and before that they drew several times. This time it is different in that Persela have risen to 1st in the table, while Barito Putera sit 5th after taking 4 points from 3 matches. Barito Putera just won at home in a back-and-forth 3-2, but their defence is clearly still a problem, because their latest match ended in a 2-3 defeat and before that a 2-2 draw. Overall they keep scoring, but they also concede plenty. Persela come in with a different kind of form: on a winning run of 4 matches, and in their last three league games they have not conceded at all, with their latest outing a 6-0 rout. This game should be open from the start, because Barito Putera have to push forward to collect points at home, while Persela will likely wait to counter with the confidence of a solid defence and an attack that keeps scoring. If Barito Putera take the lead first, the game will open up even more, and there is a high chance goals will flow at both ends.
