We’re inclined to think that Persik Kediri can and should convert a lot of goal-scoring opportunities.
Conversely, PSS Sleman will not find it easy to score although we do reckon that they could well end up seeing enough of the ball to score, too.
We therefore think that it’s going to be a decent 3-1 margin for Persik Kediri at the end of the match.
