Bhayangkara FC is deeply disappointed with their performance in the 2023/2024 season, which saw them relegated from BRI Liga 1. As a result, The Guardians will compete in Liga 2 for the upcoming season. However, Bhayangkara FC is determined not to remain in the second tier of Indonesian football for long. The club is focused on a swift return to BRI Liga 1. To achieve this, they have been preparing seriously and have been in intense training since early June 2024. The squad for Liga 2 has been strengthened with the addition of players such as Ilija Spasojevic from Bali United and Andy Setyo from Persikabo 1973, both of whom have represented the Indonesian national team.

Semen Padang will meet Borneo FC at Stadion Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu Kepolisian in Week 1 of the BRI Liga 1 2024/2025, with the game beginning at 19:00 WIB, live on Indosiar and Vidio. Semen Padang, a newly promoted team, has made extensive preparations. Following a training camp, Semen Padang won 4-0 against the West Sumatra PON team in a pre-season friendly. Hendri Susilo's team looks well-prepared. Meanwhile, Borneo FC participated in the 2024 President's Cup during the pre-season. Pesut Etam performed well, reaching the final. Despite not winning, Borneo FC's performance in the President's Cup was encouraging and demonstrated their top-level capabilities.

Moreover, Bhayangkara FC has brought back experienced senior player Ruben Sanadi, who previously helped PSBS Biak achieve promotion to Liga 1. The team has also retained several top performers such as Matias Mier, Junior Brandao, Dendy Sulistyawan, Putu Gede, Muhammad Hargianto, and Awan Setho. Matias Mier will once again be crucial in midfield, having scored 23 goals and provided 14 assists in 46 appearances last season. Junior Brandao was a top scorer candidate, netting 16 goals and adding four assists in 30 matches after his transfer from Madura United. Radja Nainggolan, who was previously with AS Roma and Inter Milan, will not be part of the squad for the next season as his contract was not extended. With these adjustments, Bhayangkara FC aims to return to Liga 1, under the guidance of the experienced coach Gomes de Oliveira.

Jaimerson Xavier will not join Bhayangkara FC in Liga 2. The former defender of Persija Jakarta and Persis Solo has signed with PSBS Biak, a promoted club for BRI Liga 1 2024/2025. Jaime had been with Bhayangkara FC during pre-season and even scored during a friendly match against PSIS Semarang. Nevertheless, he decided to commit to PSBS for the new season. The 34-year-old has signed a short-term contract for the upcoming season. "Everything is finalized, and he will be joining the team shortly," said Yan Permenas Mandenas, President of PSBS, in a release. Jaime has already joined PSBS in Biak and is expected to be ready to play against PSM Makassar on August 16, 2024, at Stadion Kapten I Wayan Dipta, Gianyar. "Our goal is to strengthen our defense, and we hope Jaime will enhance and solidify our backline," Yan Mandenas added. Jaime is the eighth foreign player to join PSBS, joining Alexsandro from Brazil, Abel Arganaraz and Gabriel Esparza from Argentina, Williams Lugo from Colombia, Takuya Matsunaga from Japan, Jonata Machado from Brazil, and Julian Velazquez from Argentina. Jaime first played in Liga 1 in 2018. In his debut season, the Brazil and Portugal league veteran led Macan Kemayoran to the championship.

Under Paul Munster's management, Persebaya has adopted a more pragmatic approach. Bajul Ijo now focuses on strong defense. If this strategy is successful, they will have a good chance to secure three points. Meanwhile, PSS Sleman may need time to adapt. The new PSS players are very promising, but there are too many changes within the team. If PSS finds their rhythm and overcomes the pressure, they could earn points.
