Young talents Aulia Rahman (17 years old) and Rahmat Syawal (18 years old) are also expected to make an impact.

On the other hand, Borneo FC took part in the 2024 President’s Cup during the preseason. Pesut Etam performed well, reaching the final. Despite not winning the title, Borneo FC’s performance in the five President’s Cup 2024 matches was encouraging, indicating they are at a high level. Semen Padang and Borneo FC last met in 2019. In their last meeting, Semen Padang and Borneo FC ended in a 1-1 draw at Stadion H. Agus Salim. The goals in that game were scored by Vanderlei and Matias Conti.

Semen Padang is not in an advantageous situation despite being the host. This is because Semen Padang will have to 'relocate' to Jakarta. Additionally, with many new foreign players, Semen Padang might need time to reach peak performance. Borneo FC has been well-tested in the 2024 President's Cup. Their squad depth is unquestionable. The new foreign signings for Borneo FC have also shown their capability, including foreign striker Leo Gaucho. Score Prediction: Semen Padang 1-3 Borneo FC.
