Compared to last season, Persija Jakarta hasn’t made many changes to their squad. The team has retained several key players, including Hanif Sjahbandi and Syahrian Abimanyu, who were rumored to be moving but decided to stay. Similarly, Marko Simic and Gustavo Almeida have also stayed with the team. Persija Jakarta has lost two senior players, Maman Abdulrahman and Tony Sucipto. However, other experienced players like Andritany Ardhiyasa and Riko Simanjuntak remain to provide leadership. Persija Jakarta has promoted young talents to the senior squad. After the generation of Dony Tri Pamungkas, the new 16-year-old player Zahabi Gholy has been introduced. Zahabi made his debut in the Piala Presiden 2024. While there haven’t been many changes in player composition, Persija Jakarta has made a significant shift in their coaching staff. Thomas Doll is no longer with the team, and Carlos Pena, from Spain, has been appointed as the new head coach. Pena is expected to build a more solid team and improve on their Piala Presiden 2024 performance. The team captaincy has also changed. For the 2024/2025 season, Rizky Ridho will take over the role from Andritany Ardhiyasa.
PT Liga Indonesia Baru (LIB) has sent the provisional schedule for Liga 1 2024/2025 to each club. Persib Bandung will kick off the competition. As the defending champions, Persib will host Liga 2 champions PSBS Biak on August 9, 2024, at Stadion Si Jalak Harupat (SJH), Soreang, Bandung Regency. Persib will return to SJH for the second week of Liga 1, where they will face Dewa United on August 19, 2024. Dewa United will have to be the traveling team for Liga 1 next season due to the Indomilk Arena in Tangerang being under renovation by the government. On September 23, 2024, Persib will have a big match against Persija Jakarta in the sixth week, to be played at SJH. From the eighth week onwards, Persib will no longer play at SJH for Liga 1, as they will move to Stadion Gelora Bandung Lautan Api (GBLA), which is currently under renovation. In the early season transfer market, Persib has not been very aggressive. Maung Bandung has only signed Mateo Kocijan, while Tyronne del Pino, Robi Darwis, Eriyanto, and Satrio Azhar have returned from loan spells. Additionally, Persib has released three players: Fitrul Dwi Rustapa to Bali United, Arsan Makarin to PSPS Pekanbaru, and Alberto Rodriguez to Mohun Bagan SG in India.

Under Paul Munster’s management, Persebaya has adopted a more pragmatic approach. Bajul Ijo now focuses on strong defense. If this plan works well, the chance of gaining three points will be open. On the other hand, PSS Sleman might require some time to adjust. PSS’s new players are promising, but the team has undergone significant changes. If PSS finds their rhythm and overcomes the pressure, they could earn points.
Persija Jakarta attacked from the outset. Almeida opened the scoring in the 11th minute with a header that was deflected by Buyung Ismu. Barito Putera responded by creating several chances but failed to equalize before halftime. Barito Putera continued to press in the second half, but it was Persija who increased their lead with a penalty from Almeida in the 71st minute. Almeida completed his hat-trick with another goal 10 minutes later, sealing a 3-0 win for Persija. The scoreline remained 3-0 until the final whistle.
