Semen Padang and PSPS Riau meet so often it is beyond counting, and most of those meetings end with the points shared. The two have drawn as many as four times in their last six matches. This time the difference is that both teams are in good rhythm at the same time, rather than arriving with patchy form as in earlier spells. Semen Padang have opened the league without losing to anyone, winning two and drawing one of their last three, and they closed it out with a 2-0 win at home. The defence is clearly tighter than in the earlier spell when they were taken apart. PSPS Riau, meanwhile, have won two in a row, scoring two in each of those games, but they have also conceded in every match, so their attack looks readier than in the early part of the league when they lost every game. The pattern of both teams points the same way. PSPS Riau have clearly had more shots on target over their last ten games, and both teams tend to concede late in matches. If the game opens up early and a goal comes quickly, this one should finish with a scoreline that is not low.
