PSS seeks to avenge the defeat they suffered in the first matchday of the season, but Persebaya is not an easy opponent

An intense duel will take place at Manahan Stadium, Surakarta, as PSS Sleman hosts Persebaya Surabaya in the 18th week of Liga 1 2024/25.
In their first encounter at Gelora Bung Tomo in August, the home team won with a solitary goal from Bruno Moreira from the penalty spot.
PSS, currently lingering near the relegation zone, carries the mission of revenge for this match, aiming to climb the standings.
Team News & PSS Squad
PSS will no longer be supported by Danilo Alves, who has officially been released, and one position in the forward line is expected to be taken by Hokky Caraka.
Gustavo Tocantins, often deployed as a striker, is likely to return to the wing position to assist Hokky.
The defense will once again be entrusted to Fachruddin Aryanto and Cleberson, with Alan Bernardon guarding the goal.
Possible Starting XI for PSS: Alan; Aryanto, Cleberson, Gomes; Ofosu-Ayeh, Sitanggang, Dion, Lestaluhu; Cardoso, Caraka, Tocantins.
Team News & Persebaya Squad
Persebaya has recently recruited two new foreign players, Dime Dimov and Dejan Tumbas, but both are doubtful for this match.
Slavko Damjanovic, a key player in defense, is expected to partner with Kadek Raditya, as their combination has only conceded 13 goals in 17 matches.
The forward line will likely be entrusted to Flavio Silva, Malik Risaldi, and Bruno Moreira, with the latter emerging as the hero of the first encounter against PSS this season.
Possible Starting XI for Persebaya: Ernando; Botan, Raditya, Damjanovic, Lauhin; Rivera, Rashid, Firmansyah; Silva, Risaldi, Bruno.Score PredictionPSS 1-2 Persebaya
