Although Persija Jakarta made it to the semifinals of the 2024 Presidential Cup, their performance needs evaluation. They experienced three straight defeats and allowed nine goals across five games. Barito Putera did not participate in the 2024 Presidential Cup but played several friendlies against top-level teams. One notable result was a 3-0 victory over Persebaya Surabaya.

Persija Jakarta tested various player combinations during the 2024 Presidential Cup. Carlos Pena should have found the right lineup by now. If this is the case, Persija has a good chance of winning. Barito Putera has retained several key players like Bayu Pradana and Rizky Pora, who can significantly contribute with their experience. With some fortune, Barito Putera could potentially earn at least one point from this game.

Persija Jakarta will host Barito Putera in the first week of BRI Liga 1 2024/2025 at Jakarta International Stadium on Saturday, August 9, 2024. The game will start at 19:00 WIB and will be shown live on Indosiar and Vidio.

Pugliara, a former Persipura player, can act as a translator and cultural liaison for Esnaider and PSBS Biak.
