Arema FC Ready to Silence PSBS Biak in the BRI Super League opening match – Indonesia’s latest viral

Viralterkini.id, Malang – Arema FC will host PSBS Biak in the inaugural match of BRI Super League 2025/2026 at Kanjempuan Stadium, Kepanjen, Malang Regency, Monday, August 11, 2025 at 15.30 WIB.

This match was broadcast live through Indosiar and Vidio, and became a special moment because it coincided with the 38th anniversary of the Singo Edan club.

Arema FC coach, Marcos Santos, stated that his team was ready to perform differently than when the preseason. He asserted that the defeat of Persija Jakarta had been forgotten and now full focus to win three points at home.

“Tomorrow is a special day. We return to Kanjempuan and celebrate Arema’s birthday. Mental players are ready, and we will perform better than last season,” Marcos said at a press conference.

New Strength Arema FC
Arema FC has completed the quota of 11 foreign players, making it the first club in the Super League this season to maximize the slot. Names like Luiz Gustavo and Betinho are believed to strengthen the midfield and defense Singo Edan.
Anyar player Luiz Gustavo also expressed his optimism:

“We will provide happiness to Aremania with three points tomorrow. My adaptation will run smoothly thanks to the support of senior players,” he said.

PSBS Biak Ready to Give a Surprise
Despite acting as the guest team, PSBS Biak was not afraid to face the Kanjuruhan atmosphere. Divaldo coach Alves confirms that his team came to win, not just visiting.

“We came here not for a walk, but to win. We have a strong enthusiasm and mentality,” said Divaldo.

PSBS Biak has a big overhaul this season, but still relies on key players such as Muhammad Tahir and young midfielder Yano Putra. (ma)
