PSM Makassar (12th)

Last three matches: W-L-D

The hosting outfit began the season with a stalemate, sharing spoils in a 1-1 game against Persija Jarkata. While the fans hoped for redemption against Dewa United in the second round, the team faced a shocking 1-2 defeat after suffering a red card in the 91st minute. The opponents seized the chance and forced a winning goal two games later in the 93’ courtesy of Alex Martins. They however finished the last game against Persikabo 1973 on a richer note, scouring points off their opponents after Wiljan Pluim scored a late screamer in the 75th minute, not withstanding the red card incident where Dzaki Ashraf left the pitch in the 66th minute - making his team battle on with ten men.

Persib Bandung (15th)

Last three matches: D-D-D

They opened the season with a 1-1 draw against Madura United, went on in a face-to-face brawl against Arema United which ended in a late 3-3 drama with both sides firing on all cylinders, refusing to concede to defeat.
