Persis Solo vs Borneo FC Prediction: The Visitors Are Far From Defeat

Bottom grillers Persis Solo plays the eighth round of the Indo Liga 1 against penultimate league leaders Borneo Samarinda, who push an unbeaten run in this round and pursue a winning brace against the hosts, who have tasted only victory once since the league’s inception.

Recent Form: L-W-L-L-D

With only four points in the first seven league appearances, it is suggestive that the hosting outfit may have a rough season this year.

Judging from consecutive losses against Persebaya (2-1) and Persik Kediri (1-0), numerous reparative efforts may be required to redeem the team, who may be deemed unfortunately comfortable with the trivia of the bottom spot.

Sho Yamamoto is expected to stand out among his mates, leading his team to a united front — as they aim to rebuff the previous loss to Borneo and resume their climb to better positioning.

Recent Form: W-D-W-D-D

Borneo Samarinda pushes a five-running unbeaten run of form in this game, securing the second spot with fifteen points in seven games played. The last five league games played by the side procured three stalemates and two victories.

The 1-0 win over Malut United was insufficient to spur them to victory against Barito Putera, who secured a 1-1 draw before the Nations League break.

They play a 4-3-3 with midfielders Rivaldo Eneiro Pakpahan and Berguinho, risking next game appearances if they get subsequent yellow cards.

Alongside striker Leo Gaucho, 26-year-old Mariano Peralta Bauer is the main focus of the game, running circles around the midfield while assisting the flanks and wingers.

The last three meetings between the sides produced one win for Borneo, one stalemate, and a win for Persis Solo. These games produced two BTTS and only one occasion of over two goals (O2.5)

Borneo is undoubtedly the better side. However, the recent flop in the ACC Championship casts undeniable doubts about their ability to outperform Persis Solo here. Our thoughts are:

• Under 2.5 at 1.70 odds from 1xbet.
• Victory for Borneo at 2.30 odds for Bet365.
• A BTTS -NO at 1.86 odds from Betway.
