The reason for Persija Jakarta’s cancellation of the friendly match against Atletico Madrid is their participation in the 2024 President's Cup. Initially, there were rumors that Persija would face Atletico Madrid on Saturday (August 3) at Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) as part of their preparations for the upcoming season. Persija qualified for the semifinal stage of the 2024 President's Cup and was set to play against Persis Solo for third place on the same day at Stadion Manahan, Solo. "It was definitely not possible because we were involved in the third-place match of the 2024 President’s Cup," Persija's Director Mohamad Prapanca told reporters. He explained that Atletico Madrid could only come on that specific date, which conflicted with Persija's schedule. "We were prepared to host them, but we had to follow the regulations of our federation," Prapanca said. Prapanca is unsure if Atletico Madrid will still visit Indonesia after the friendly was canceled. He mentioned that Persija initially planned to test their strength against the Spanish giants. "I’m not sure. You should inquire with the promoter about Atletico Madrid’s visit. Regarding the planning, yes, the plan was made," Prapanca added. "However, the promoter also needed to get recommendations from our federation and PT LIB to see if it could be arranged during the 2024 President's Cup," he concluded.

Compared to the previous season, Persija Jakarta has made few changes to their squad. Key players like Hanif Sjahbandi and Syahrian Abimanyu, who were rumored to be transferring, chose to remain. 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. The club has also promoted young talents to the first team. Following the previous generation led by Dony Tri Pamungkas, the new 16-year-old talent Zahabi Gholy has been introduced. Zahabi Gholy 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.

PSIS Semarang has undergone significant changes ahead of the BRI Liga 1 2024/2025 season, with many key players moving on. Two crucial local defenders, Fredyan Wahyu and Wahyu Prasetyo, have transferred to Malut United. They follow in the footsteps of Hari Nur Yulianto, who made the same move last season. Additionally, PSIS Semarang lost Taisei Marukawa, a key foreign player, to Dewa United. PSIS cited foreign player regulations as a reason for Marukawa’s departure. However, PSIS has made new signings to strengthen the squad, including Zalnando, who was loaned from Persib Bandung. Young talents Aulia Rahman (17 years old) and Rahmat Syawal (18 years old) are also expected to make an impact. Here is a recap of PSIS Semarang’s official transfers at the start of the 2024/2025 season:

Persija Jakarta made it to the semifinals of the 2024 Presidential Cup but needs to evaluate their performance due to three consecutive losses. They conceded nine goals in the five matches played. Barito Putera did not participate in the 2024 Presidential Cup but played several friendly matches against top-level teams. One notable result was a 3-0 victory against Persebaya Surabaya.

The use of VAR (Video Assistant Referee) is not new to BRI Liga 1 or Indonesian football in general. VAR was introduced during the Championship Series of the 2023/2024 season. However, for the 2024/2025 season, VAR will be used in all BRI Liga 1 matches. To maintain the VAR equipment at stadiums, there is a regulation imposing a fine of IDR 100 million for any damage caused by players or officials. Additionally, the home club is responsible for the security of the VAR equipment, with a penalty of IDR 500 million for any violations.

The live broadcast schedule for BRI Liga 1 today includes the match between Persija Jakarta and Barito Putera. Persija Jakarta will host Barito Putera in the opening week of BRI Liga 1 2024/2025 at Jakarta International Stadium on Saturday, August 9, 2024. Kick-off is scheduled for 19:00 WIB, with live coverage on Indosiar and Vidio.

Arema FC, the winners of the pre-season Presidential Cup, will encounter a tough test in their opening match of BRI Liga 1 2024/2025. Lucas Frigeri and his team will face Dewa United, a club predicted to be a strong contender for the BRI Liga 1 title this season. Dewa United made notable acquisitions in the transfer window, including Alexis Messidoro from Persis Solo and high-profile players Taisei Marukawa and Jaja, who have strong reputations in Liga 1.
