Squad Analysis: Key Players and Absences
PSS Sleman will rely heavily on the talents of Hokky Caraka, known for his nimble footwork and sharp shooting. Riko Simanjuntak, a dynamic winger, adds pace and creativity to their attack.

League games released
1st League slips back into focus now, and I’m jotting down what’s coming up—few matches predictions worth analyzing over. Teams are gearing up, no grand fuss, just that quiet hum before they lock horns. At all, here’s the outline next. Persebaya Surabaya tangle with Madura United FC, 20 April 2025 — two sides that don’t mess about. Persita Tangerang line up against Arema at 20 April 2025, await goals flying if they’ve got their shooting boots on.
That’s the lot laid out—enough to get your head spinning. 1st League mid-table teams play for pride, but the top dogs hunt in packs.
