Relegation Battle Heats Up: Liga 1 Strugglers Offer Big Bonuses to Boost Survival Hopes
As the 2024–25 Liga 1 season approaches its final week, several teams near the bottom of the standings are ramping up their efforts to avoid relegation. To increase player motivation, clubs like Semen Padang and PSS Sleman are offering significant financial incentives. Semen Padang, for instance, has promised a Rp500 million bonus if they can defeat Arema FC in their final match, with nearly Rp1 billion already distributed throughout the season for key wins and draws.
PSS Sleman is also leveraging bonuses to fuel a late-season surge. Riding a three-game winning streak, the team is preparing for a crucial showdown against Madura United. Although the exact amount remains undisclosed, the club has confirmed that the bonus for this decisive match will be larger than previous ones, underlining its importance in their survival campaign. Management hopes this strategy will inspire the players to deliver a full-effort performance.
The relegation zone remains tightly contested, with PSS Sleman and Barito Putera currently tied at 31 points in 16th and 17th place respectively, both just two points behind 15th-place Semen Padang. The battle to avoid the drop will culminate in a high-stakes final matchday, with all key fixtures—including Semen Padang vs Arema FC, Madura United vs PSS, and PSIS vs Barito Putera—scheduled to kick off simultaneously on Saturday, May 24, 2025.
