In the match of Liga 1, which took place on 10 December 2023, the clash between Persib Bandung and Persik Kediri ultimately resulted in a 0-2 win for the visitors. Both teams remained disciplined with neither side receiving yellow or red cards – a relatively rare sight in the league. Match statistics, however, reflect the dominance of Kediri side throughout the game, putting them in a more advantageous position.

Kediri’s offensive strategy was efficient as they capitalized on their attempts with 5 shots on target, from which 2 resulted in goals. In contrast, Bandung struggled to find a breakthrough, failing to convert any of their 3 shots on target. Bandung’s finishing was indeed their Achilles heel as they only managed 5 attempts in total with 2 of them being off target.

Persik Kediri demonstrated superior control over set-pieces, tallying up to 5 corner kicks across the match, compared to just 1 for Persib Bandung. The focus on the corners, a strategic advantage, helped Kediri in keeping the ball near the opposition's goal for a longer period of time, thus capitalizing on their scoring opportunities.

Moreover, Kediri's brute approach was evident from their high foul count, totalling up to 7 fouls compared to Bandung’s 5. While this did not translate into cards in this game, it is a clear indication of a high-pressure approach from the away side, disallowing the Bandung side any comfort on the ball.

While both teams performed an average job defensively, each making 3 goalkeeper saves, Bandung was deficient in exploiting Kediri’s line defense, as they were caught offside twice. Kediri, however, was able to better outsmart Bandung’s defense with only 3 offsides.

Substitution strategy did not appear to have a significant impact on the match outcome, with Bandung making 3 substitutions in contrast to Kediri’s 2. Yet, this may indicate a more stable and coordinated team performance from Kediri.

In summary, Persik Kediri’s victory over Persib Bandung was largely due to their efficient offensive strategy, superior control over set pieces and higher pressure playstyle. Persib Bandung, on the other hand, need to work on their finishing as well as their performance in thwarting offside traps.
