Jaimerson Xavier Decides to Join PSBS Biak Instead of Bhayangkara FC in Liga 2

The head-to-head record between PSS Sleman and Persebaya is not favorable. In the last six encounters, PSS has never won against Bajul Ijo. During this period, Persebaya won three times, and the remaining three matches ended in draws. Persebaya has a strong roster, including Francisco Rivera, who was the best player in BRI Liga 1 2023/2024. However, this does not make PSS captain Kim Kurniawan concede defeat before the match. "Rivera had an outstanding season with Madura United FC last year and was a crucial player for the team. We need to control Rivera’s movement to limit his impact on Persebaya's play," Kim said.

Jaimerson Xavier will not be joining Bhayangkara FC in Liga 2. The ex-defender of Persija Jakarta and Persis Solo has opted to join PSBS Biak, which has been promoted to BRI Liga 1 2024/2025. Jaime had participated in pre-season with Bhayangkara FC, and even scored in a friendly match against PSIS Semarang. However, he chose to represent PSBS for the upcoming 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 arrived in Biak to join PSBS and is likely to be available for their match 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.

Although Bajul Ijo won, their performance has not been optimal yet. The collaboration between Francisco Rivera, Bruno Moreira, and Flavio Silva is still not fully cohesive. Meanwhile, in their last friendly match, PSS Sleman lost 1-2 to Persita Tangerang. PSS’s performance is also not optimal, but there is hope brought by midfielder Moon Chang-jin, the attacking creator for Super Elang Jawa.

Arema FC is riding high after their victory in the 2024 President's Cup. The squad has shown strong performances, with players such as Lucas Frigeri and Willian Marcilio playing key roles. Dewa United is expected to be a tough opponent for Arema FC. The arrivals of Hugo Gomes, Taisei Marukawa, and Alexis Messidoro indicate their ambitious goals. With stars like Egy Maulana Vikri and Alex Martins, their attacking line is formidable.

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. After a training camp, they secured a 4-0 victory over the West Sumatra PON team in a friendly match. Hendri Susilo's team looks well-prepared. Borneo FC took part in the 2024 President's Cup during the pre-season. Pesut Etam had a strong showing, making it to the final. Although they did not win the cup, their performances in the five matches were promising and showed they are at a high level.

In addition to Rivera, Persebaya also has Gilson Costa and Mohamed Rashid in midfield. They were newly signed by Bajul Ijo at the beginning of the 2024/2025 season. They are expected to play a significant role. "So, we as players already know how he plays and how to anticipate his movements," said the former Persib Bandung player.

The game, played at Stadion Si Jalak Harupat, was fiercely contested from the beginning. Both teams were engaged in a back-and-forth exchange of attacks. The first major chance occurred when David Da Silva took advantage of a corner kick from Mailson, but his shot missed the PSBS Biak goal. Persib opened the scoring in the 18th minute. Following a counterattack, Dimas Drajad provided a cross from the right, which David Da Silva turned into a goal. Persib led 1-0 at this point. The lead gave Persib more confidence, and they continued to press PSBS Biak, but the score remained 1-0 until halftime.
