DomainJava.com – Prediction for Borneo vs Semen Padang in the Indonesian League match, in the 18th week of the Indonesian League 1 season 2024/25 which will be held at the Batakan Stadium, Balikpapan, Tuesday (14/1) evening.
Borneo FC’s achievements are in freefall in the middle of this season, after being at the top some time ago.
However, Borneo FC has the opportunity to win and improve its position on the standings this week, because they will meet a team that on paper is below them.
The football team nicknamed Pesut Etam will meet Semen Padang – a promoted team which is currently sinking in the bottom position. Of course, the hosts can take advantage of this situation to chase victory and secure perfect points.
Semen Padang’s condition is indeed not very encouraging, upon their return to the country’s top football competition. So far this season, Kabau Sirah’s squad has only managed to secure two wins, four draws and 11 defeats.
Playing at home, Borneo FC certainly wants to recover and improve their previously deteriorating performance.
In front of their loyal fans, Pieter Huistra’s team is certainly determined to win and improve their position which has currently fallen to 10th place.
With their brilliant record when they met Semen Padang – namely three wins and two draws in the last five meetings, Borneo certainly wants to continue this streak.
However, the Pesut Etam team still has to be wary of their guests’ game, because it is not impossible that Semen Padang will appear surprising, because they want to take advantage of Borneo FC’s faltering condition. Score Prediction: Borneo FC 2 – 0 Semen Padang.
Borneo’s line-up against Semen Padang is still without Nadeo Argawinata and Kei Hirose. Both players served red cards from the previous match. Nadeo received a red card when Borneo played Persebaya Surabaya and Hirose when they met Persik Kediri.
Matheus Pato is likely to make his debut in his second period with Borneo. Other players such as Mariano Peralta, Stefano Lilipaly and Fajar Fathur Rahman are also predicted to play from the early minutes.
Semen Padang itself is still without Gala Pagamo because of the red card from the match against Persik. Apart from that, it will be interesting to look forward to the debut of Semen Padang’s new foreign players in the next match.
Head to head Borneo vs Semen Padang is dominated by Pesut Etam with a record of three wins from the last seven meetings. Semen Padang itself only won one win and the other three matches ended in draws. (ed)
