Preview: PSM Makassar vs Persebaya Surabaya – BRI Liga 1 2023/2024 Matchup at Batakan Stadium

PSM Makassar is set to clash with Persebaya Surabaya in the upcoming 26th week of BRI Liga 1 2023/2024 at Batakan Stadium on Wednesday, February 27, 2024, with the match kicking off at 19.00 WIB and airing live on Indosiar. In their previous outing, PSM drew 0-0 against Bali United, extending their unbeaten streak to 10 matches. The team is now fully equipped, featuring both Yance and Yakob Sayuri in their lineup. On the other hand, Persebaya’s form remains unpredictable despite avoiding defeat in their last seven matches. The squad has managed six draws and one win during this period, with coach Paul Munster yet to unlock his squad’s full potential.

Although Persebaya secured a 1-0 victory over PSM in their first encounter of the season, PSM has dominated recent encounters, winning three out of the last five matches between the two sides. In terms of lineup, PSM Makassar is expected to field a 3-5-2 formation, with players like Joao Pedro and Victor Mansaray leading the attack under the guidance of coach Bernardo Tavares. Persebaya Surabaya, on the other hand, is likely to set up with a 4-2-3-1 formation, featuring Paulo Henrique and Bruno Moreira as key players under coach Paul Munster’s direction.

Looking at recent performances, both teams have showcased defensive stability, with PSM not conceding in their last two matches and Persebaya making strides at the back. However, Persebaya’s lack of offensive prowess is evident, failing to score more than one goal in their last five matches. With PSM’s solid defense and Persebaya’s struggles in front of goal, a score prediction of a 1-1 draw seems plausible for this fixture.

For those eager to catch the action live, the PSM Makassar vs Persebaya Surabaya match at Batakan Stadium will be broadcasted on Indosiar and available for live streaming on Vidio.
