Four-Way Showdown for Liga 1 Runner-Up Spot Heats Up Ahead of Final Matchdays
With Persib Bandung already crowned Liga 1 champions, the focus has shifted to the fierce battle for second place. Four teams—Dewa United, Persebaya Surabaya, Malut United, and Borneo FC—are locked in a tight race to secure the prestigious runner-up position. Dewa United currently leads the chase with 57 points and has the clearest path to sealing second place, needing just two wins from their remaining matches to clinch it.
Persebaya Surabaya remains a strong contender, sitting just two points behind Dewa United. They must win both of their final games and hope that Dewa drops points in at least one to overtake them in the standings. Malut United, meanwhile, lurks as a dangerous dark horse. Although their chances depend heavily on slip-ups from both Dewa and Persebaya, two victories could launch them to second place due to their superior head-to-head record.
Borneo FC faces the steepest climb, trailing with 52 points. Their only route to a runner-up finish requires them to win their last two matches while relying on all three of their competitors to falter. While the odds are slim, the scenario remains mathematically possible. As the final two matchdays approach, this four-team battle encapsulates the intensity and unpredictability of Liga 1’s closing weeks, where tactical precision and mental resilience will be as crucial as points on the board.
